Conservation Agriculture systems are present in all continents, involving rainfed and irrigated systems including annual cropland systems, perennial systems, orchards and plantation systems, agroforestry systems, crop-livestock systems, pasture and rangeland systems, organic production systems and rice-based systems. Conservation Tillage, Reduced Tillage and Minimum Tillage are not Conservation Agriculture, and nor is No-Till on its own* (more at: http://www.fao.org/conservation-agriculture). ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: juliana albertengo <[log in to unmask]> Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2020 at 20:49 Subject: Webinar announcement: CCAC Webinar on Alternative to OB Demo Projects in India and Peru To: Amir Kassam <[log in to unmask]> Dear Amir, We´ll have a webinar about the CA Project in Peru that can be of interest for the CA network: *Addressing Agricultural Sector Open Burning:Results and lessons learned from the CCAC no-burn alternative demonstration projects in India and Peru* Date: : Thursday 16 April 2020 Local Times: 15:00 CET/ 18:30 IST/ 08:00 PET/ 09:00 EDT/ 10:00 ART Duration: 1 hour https://ccacoalition.org/en/event/addressing-agricultural-sector-open-burning-results-and-lessons-learned-ccac-no-burn We´ll also address India´s results.
