Field Beans Before Barley Could Cut Environmental Impact
Growing field beans before barley in a crop rotation could reduce the environmental impact of farming, according to a report from SeedWorld. Rotating legumes like field beans ahead of cereal crops is a practice associated with improved soil health and lower fertiliser needs, since legumes fix nitrogen naturally. The finding points to crop rotation choices as a lever for more sustainable grain production.
Why now: Farmers and environmental observers are weighing crop rotation practices that could make cereal farming more sustainable.
