Sustainable adaptation measures for arable crops
Crops diversification at farm level (3-5 crops)
Crops diversification > 5 crops at farm level
2 crops harvested on the same plot in one year
Balance between 3 periods of sowing for the main crops
Adapt date of sowing & variety precocity
Varieties adapted to main climate stress
Reach a reasonable threshold (ha/variety)
Mix of varieties within plots more sensitive to climate stress (cold, drought…)
Varietal bouquet at farm level (all plots) to desynchronize sensitives crops stages
To plant and harvest an own variety collection at farm level every year
Regular application of organic fertilizers
Implement soil winter cover crop between main crops
Develop farm level surface for cover crops
Implement diversified (species) soil cover crop
Cover soil with straw or stubble to avoid bare soils in summer
Fertilizers applied fractioned
Water ponds to collect rain water
Better efficiency in irrigation, decision-support tools
Better knowledge of crops’ water needs
