Trial Name: 2024 PRLL Relay Cropping Winter Cereals

Description

Relay cropping is when a cash crop is sown early in the growing season and within a month or so, a second crop is then seeded. This is conducted by taking advantage of the fact that the first crop planted has not grown tall enough to be ruined by machinery while placing the second crop into the ground. Possible benefits include the reduction of soil erosion from air and water after the end of the growing season and the maintenance of a living root system during the cold months of the year.
