*CA-CoP* *CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE*

*for sustainable production intensification*

Dear Subscribers,

Please see herebelow a message from Prof. Li Hongwen, Director of the
Centre for Conservation Agriculture Research in Beijing.

This is excellent news regarding Conservation Agriculture (CA) in China.
Although the announcement mentions Conservation Tillage (CT), in China the
focus is on CA. In China, due to historical reasons, they use the term CT
when they actually mean CA.
