Risk Model Team’s First Manuscript Now Available as a Pre-Print!
We're thrilled to share that our team’s first academic manuscript, titled “Diversified crop rotations mitigate agricultural losses from dry weather,” has been submitted for peer review!
In the meantime, the "pre-print" manuscript is available on agriRxiv.
The paper explores the ability of more diverse crop rotations to protect against corn yield loss in drought conditions in the midwestern US, and how this soil health practice can be used as a risk-mitigation tool.
