Fields' characteristics

Each farm, with about 30 hectares of surface, have soil conditions and slope as similar as possible so that the results obtained are comparable.

For the development of the illustrative actions is necessary to start from an initial experimental design that allows the study of the projects’ parameters. In a General way, the design will look for the study of the cultivations implicated in the zone’s usual rotation (cereal-legumes-sunflower) in the two management systems to compare. (Conventional based in labor vs. conservation and precision agriculture). This way, in each season, results will be obtained in all cultivations and in all lands’ management systems.
