Tridge summary

The National Research Institute Forestry, Agriculture and Livestock (INIFAP) is providing technical support to producers of the Oilseed Product System in Mexico, promoting the rotation of soybeans and safflower crops to enhance the profitability and sustainability of national agriculture. This validated technology, which involves planting soybeans in the spring-summer cycle and safflower in the autumn winter, aims to achieve profitable and sustainable agriculture through conservation principles. Adopted by INIFAP from its Experimental Field Las Huastecas, this technology is projected to reduce soil preparation costs by 40% and decrease carbon emission by 40% through direct sowing and the retention of crop residues. This approach is part of INIFAP's strategy to counter the effects of climate change and soil degradation by promoting conservation practices.
