Crop rotation is a common agronomic practice that involves the systematic sequencing of different crops in a specific field over several seasons. This technique aims to enhance soil fertility, control pests and diseases, and optimize crop yield.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in regenerative agriculture, a holistic approach to farming that seeks to restore and revitalize the land while improving crop yields and overall farm profitability. This means increased crop yields and reduced inputs like fertilizers and pesticides.

A recent study at the University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment found that replacing 40 pounds of synthetic nitrogen with Pivot Bio PROVEN® 40 can increase corn yields while reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizer. Other results from the studies indicated higher corn yields.

As with many eco initiatives, what was old is new again: Cover crops (or fallow season plantings; see more below) were first used during the Roman Empire as a way to boost the soil quality in vineyards. Cover cropping is a means of increasing soil fertility without chemicals. How do cover crops work?

Nutrient deficiencies can result from various factors, such as poor soil nutrition, imbalanced fertilization, inadequate soil pH levels, or other environmental stresses. However, over time, the lack of essential nutrients can impact crop yield and quality, even without apparent symptoms.

This includes recording weather patterns, soil conditions, irrigation practices, crop yields, and any other relevant metrics. As weather patterns become increasingly unpredictable, it's more challenging to plan crop rotations, planting, irrigation, and other tasks that depend heavily on the weather.
