CATCH CROP SEDIMENT MITIGATION GROUP

Developing mitigations and sustainable solutions for reducing sediment and  nutrient losses in winter crops.

THE CATCH CROPS PROJECT

This is a Sustainable Farming Fund Project

We are a team of rural specialists and scientists from across New Zealand undertaking in-depth research around the environmental and economic benefits of Catch Crops. We are evaluating a range of crop species and establishment techniques that have the ability to reduce sediment and surface flow losses following winter grazing of forage crops. 

We believe in the power of sharing knowledge, so will use catchcrop.nz as a hub for showcasing the progress and outcomes of our project as we proceed. We welcome input and discussion over at our Blog and for more details, read our Project Overview.
