🌱 Intercropping can improve yields and soil health. Yet, it is used on just 2% of EU farmland. We want to change that. Through field trials and on-farm living labs, we’re finding ways to make intercropping practical and profitable. 🎥 Learn more 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=YZstga…

🌱 What works in Denmark might not work in Spain. That’s why we are testing intercropping across seven research fields, each with distinct soils and climates. Learn more 👉 leguminose.eu/research-field/

“Higher agrobiodiversity is key to transforming farming.” 🌾 @PathanShamina  (@DagriUnifi) shares how soil analyses across 🇮🇹🇩🇪🇩🇰🇪🇸 reveal intercropping’s impact on soil microbes and how farmer engagement turns data into practice. Read the interview 👇 leguminose.eu/listening-to-s…

Intercropping provides big benefits – better soil health, less fertiliser use, and resilient farms. But farmers aren’t adopting it at scale. The new LEGUMINOSE & @IntercropVALUES policy brief explains why – and how better policies could change that. 👇 leguminose.eu/wp-content/upl…

How does intercropping affect disease and pest levels? Mixed crops make it harder for pests to spread! Plus, healthier soil can make plants more resilient. 🌱 🔍 Many farmers report fewer pest & disease problems with intercropping. Learn more 👇 leguminose.eu/intercropping-…

Can mixing legumes and cereals transform life below ground? 🌾🌱 In the LEGUMINOSE project, we are testing the hypothesis that intercropping leads to a healthier, more diverse rhizobiome - the microbial community in the root zone. See how it works 👇🧵 1/4
