Is wheat farming sustainable?
Canadian farmers practice sustainable growing practices like crop rotation. Farmers plan their crop rotation based on what they grow on their farm. Rotating crops is a sustainable choice🌾🔄.
For example, a field planted with spring wheat one year will then be planted with crops like canola, soybeans, corn, barley, oats or pulses the following year.
Rotating crops provides improved soil fertility and helps to break pest and disease cycles.
Win, win, win!
