Resilient dryland farming appropriation (RDFA) 2021 – 2022 annual report: Alternative crop trial

Integrating alternative crops into wheat-fallow systems may enhance overall sustainability and soil health. Under the Resilient Dryland Farming Alliance (RDFA), a grower-led initiative, an array of potential alternative crops are being evaluated for diversified and intensified wheat-based systems. This annual report presents the alternative crop yields from the third year of the alternative crop trials. Further details about the overall rationale, objectives, long-term vision, and funding for the RDFA can be found under the "Field Crops" topic here on the OSU Extension website.
