Perennial Cropland Management
Perennial Cropland Management
Perennial cropland management focuses on the use of perennial plants, which live for more than two years, as a sustainable farming practice. Unlike annual crops that require replanting each season, perennial crops grow back year after year, reducing soil disturbance and the need for tilling. This approach helps preserve soil structure, prevent erosion, and improve water retention. Perennials also require fewer inputs such as water, fertilizer, and pesticides, making them more environmentally friendly and cost-effective. By integrating perennial crops into farming systems, farmers can reduce their environmental footprint, improve long-term soil health, and contribute to a more sustainable agricultural model.
