Management strategies to restore the productivity of rainfed crops

INTRODUCTION:

Field workshops will cover soil regeneration practices, rotation management strategies, and resilient genetic varieties that will help restore the productivity of dryland crops in Castile and León. Training will also be included in associative and cooperative strategies for improving the value chain. This training will be delivered through learning and knowledge generation using cooperative and participatory methodologies.

• DURATION: 6 hours_ from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

GOALS:

• Promote the improvement of dryland herbaceous crop farms through management that favors their resilience and adaptation to climate change, offsetting the decrease in productivity, achieving profitability and maintaining these over time.
• Contribute to the knowledge and maintenance of ecosystem services generated by dryland herbaceous crops if they are managed with appropriate management strategies to promote soil conservation and the maintenance of biodiversity on farms.
• Facilitate the multi-stakeholder transfer of knowledge on management strategies to offset the decline in productivity in dryland farming, promoting the conversion of said crop to organic production and thus market differentiation and increased farm profitability.
• Disseminate the best techniques, practices and management available to offset the decrease in dryland productivity through organic production, taking into account the existing climate change forecast and the current marketing factors for its products.
