*Conservation Agriculture is an ecosystem approach to regenerative
sustainable agriculture and land management based on the practical
application of context-specific and locally adapted three interlinked
principles of: (i) Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil disturbance
(no-till seeding/planting and weeding, and minimum soil disturbance with
all other farm operations including harvesting); (ii) permanent
maintenance of soil mulch cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops);
and (iii) diversification of cropping system (economically, environmentally
and socially adapted rotations and/or sequences and/or associations
involving annuals and/or perennials, including legumes and cover crops),
along with other complementary good agricultural production and land
management practices. 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.*

Satellite Imagery Supports Benefits of Interseeding Cover Crops
<https://lessiter.omeclk.com/portal/wts/uemcnc-coy-ba-7ybzEAmhDFrD2f0kPxk-jwPNTc>
Planting a cover crop between the main growing seasons can offer many
benefits for soil health and sustainable food production but getting the
timing right on establishment can be tricky. Analysis of satellite imagery
by researchers at the University of Twente in the Netherlands suggests
interseeding in corn is necessary to get the optimal growth.
