Optimising Subsidiary Crop Applications in Crop Rotations
Enhancing soil health and water conservation through cover crop-based tillage systems across diverse European and global agroecological conditions
or
Detail description
Improve soil coverage and reduce tillage intensity by using cover crops as living and dead mulch. Enhances species diversity in crop rotations, reduces reliance on fertilisers, pesticides, and herbicides, and conserves water in dry climates. Research focuses on optimal cultivation methods, machinery, and plant genotypes to develop region-specific conservation tillage systems across Europe and non-European countries. Evaluates ecological and economic impacts in organic and conventional farming systems.
