La Canova farm

This is a beef-cattle linked arable site under minimum tillage, with slurry and solid manure use, residue retention and pivot irrigation. Soil-health measures include manure incorporation, improved nutrient timing, possible use of nitrogen-cycle inhibitors, cover crops, better rotations and reduced disturbance. The crops are soybean (food/feed), maize (mainly feed), wheat (food/feed) and barley (feed/food).
