Intercropping – Spring Barley and Peas
Intercropping is where more than one crop is grown together to exploit synergies between the crops during and after the growing season.
This video is about the experience of farmer Johnny McCrirrick who has a mixed farming system and is growing spring barley and peas together to provide a higher protein feed for his finishing cattle.
Scotland’s Farm Advisory Service (FAS) is funded by the Scottish Government, providing information and resources aimed at increasing the profitability and sustainability of farms and crofts.
