🌱[Monday #Agronomic #News!] Today, we are sharing insights from the Berry region of France, visiting a farmer in the Soil Capital programme, an #innovativefarm managed with direct drill seeding and double cropping to ensure the soil is always covered. Key highlights: 🌾 Field Experiment: A test was conducted on a cereal plot by adding a 24-meter strip of peas (legumes). The results are clear: sorghum planted after the pea-cereal mix is more vigorous and green compared to sorghum after pure cereal. This shows the benefits of including #legumes in crop rotations. 🌿 Carbon Strategy: The farm identified a lack of easily digestible carbon, crucial for active soil fauna. To address this, we will work on rebalancing the carbon inputs to boost #soilhealth and productivity. Stay tuned for more updates as we refine strategies to boost #sustainablefarming practices. #Agriculture #Sustainability #CarbonManagement #SoilHealth #Innovation
