Rotational Cropping! Sorghum After Soybeans

After harvesting Soybeans from our seed production area in New Esperanza, Mlang, we have prepared the field for our first experiment on Rotational Cropping.
Rotational Cropping is a traditional practice of giving the soil a “rest” after harvest by introducing a new crop, usually leguminous plants.
In rice farming, old folks sowed mungbeans or “Monggo” in the paddy after harvest.
In Corn fields, peanuts are the most common rotational crop.
Since I planted Soybeans first, I am now introducing a major crop, Sorghum, which will be in the field for two croppings before I go back to Soybeans again.
This morning, when I checked the field where we had harvested Soybeans, the soil looked really fertile.
Hopefully, my Sorghum harvest will be good with our Rotational Cropping System.
