La fagiana farm
This farm is particularly relevant within SHARE because it represents a rice-based coastal plain system. Soil-health practices include residue incorporation, rotation diversification beyond rice, introduction of cover crops/intercrops, improved nutrient timing, and the reduction of deep tillage in favour of more minimum tillage. The crops are rice (food), soybean (food/feed), maize (mainly food) and wheat (food/feed).
