Azienda agricola Rossi

This is an arable lowland site under minimum tillage (10–15 cm), with crop residues generally left in the field and sub-irrigation. Soil-health actions focus on better nutrient timing, wider use of cover crops, improved crop rotation design and continued reduced tillage. The main crops are peas (food) and maize (food).
