CERZOO farm

This is the SHARE supersite and a field-experimental site with side-by-side conventional and no-till management. Soil-health practices include residue retention, cover crops in no-till sectors, diversified rotations with grasses and legumes, and reduced soil disturbance, alongside nutrient management tailored to crop needs. The key crops are maize (feed) and soybean (food/feed), within an experimental setting particularly suitable for intensive monitoring and demonstration.
