Description:
Designing a crop rotation is like buying a new pair of work boots. You will be wearing them for a long time and you have to be able to work efficiently and comfortably in them. The boots must be sturdy yet flexible, supportive yet comfortable - a balance of needs. In this lesson, we look at balancing needs when designing a crop rotation in two agronomic regions: semi-arid west and humid east.
