All the sites in our project fall into one of seven crop groups. Most groups include both organic and conventional fields.
- Dryland Grains: Dryland wheat and millet, no irrigation, using a crop-fallow system.
- Commodity Row Crops: Irrigated crops like corn, triticale, wheat, hemp, beans, sugar beets, barley, millet, and silage.
- Commercial Vegetable/Flower/Fruit: Irrigated vegetables, flowers and fruit, sold commercially.
- Perennial Hay/Alfalfa/Pasture: Irrigated perennial pasture systems of grass, hay, and alfalfa.
- Home Gardens: Vegetables, flowers, and fruit trees for home consumption.
- Non-farm Grasslands: Dryland grasslands with no recent tillage or farming practices.
- Trees: Forests and tree farms.
