[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 4066306, member: 71668"] I am 100% cropping, by diverse rotation I mean following one crop with a different plant type. I am only playing with cover crops at the moment so cant really comment on them, but as an example of my rotation at the moment & aiming for a bit of diversity - cotton picked this year was planted to chickpeas last week which will be planted to durum wheat next winter, which will have mung beans or cowpeas sown straight after harvest. Trying to vary plant & root types. Although I don't yet know how to get around the logistical & practical issues, ideally I would like to introduce ruminants in a high density 1 or 2 day cell grazing style. I believe their activity ( trying to mimic the vast grazing herds of Africa & North America ) would be highly beneficial to the soil biology & breaking down of crop residues. Gabe Brown & others make it work in Dakota, others in Kansas do. We are a very different environment, but surely we can learn & adapt something [/QUOTE]
