Crop choice

Crop choice is the process of choosing which crops to grow in a particular area. This can be based on a variety of factors, including soil type, climate, water availability, market demand, and the farmer’s personal preferences. It is a critical decision for farmers, as it can significantly impact their success and profitability. Increased use of resilient, pest resitant crop varieties and species. Use of resistant crops to biotic and abiotic stresses (and mixing them) or crops with selected traits that enhance rhizosphere activities (e.g. mycorrhiza, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria). Use of crops/plant varieties more resilient to climate change
