Transition to large-scale organic vegetable production in the Salinas Valley, California

2008-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Studying the management strategies suited to large-scale organic production, particularly during the mandated 3-year transition period from conventional management, is a unique research challenge. Organic production traditionally relies on small, diverse plantings and complex management responses to cope with soil fertility and pest pressures, so research should represent decision-making options of an organic grow...
