Description

In this episode, James dives into the topic of protected cropping and share ideas to make the most of the space that you have in an organic system.  He talks about the role of protected cropping through the seasons, rotations, balancing long-season repeat-harvesting crops with quick-growing catch crops and the importance of aligning your crop plan with your sales plan. James also goes into detail about how you can underplant, intercrop and relay crop to maximise production and revenue undercover.
