Diversified cropping systems through crop rotations are potential alternatives to conventional cropping as a way to reduce the environmental impact of farming while being able to economically compete with conventional systems. A key component of diversified cropping systems is the inclusion of multiple crop species, including pulse crops. System indicators, such as productivity, economic returns, nitrogen fertilizer use, and energy use efficiency from multiple site-year data will be presented to compare performance of diversified and conventional cropping systems.

Funding for this project has been provided by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada through the Agricultural Climate Solutions – Living Labs program.
