Podcast: How to integrate new crops into your arable rotation

Growers keep being told ‘widen your rotation', but how do you manage risk with reward when it comes to growing new crops? How long should you give a crop in the rotation before throwing in the towel?

And where do you start in deciding what to grow? From alternative pulse markets, to Wildfarmed wheat, to the weird and wonderful, in this latest episode of Crop It Like It's Hot, we take a look at what other growers are giving a go, and how to measure success when it comes to integrating a new crop into your arable rotation.
