Reduce herbicide use by intercropping sugarcane with service crops (La Réunion, eRcane and CIRAD)

As part of the intercropVALUES project, eRcane, in partnership with CIRAD, is working with 4 farmers to co-design a low herbicide sugarcane system using intercropping. This video serves as a guide for farmers on how to use service crops in the field.
The IntercropVALUES project in La Réunion aims to identify technical and economic challenges and opportunities related to introducing service crops. Researchers collaborate with four farmers to co-design a technical itinerary that could be shared for the development of legume intercropping in sugar cane. The project also facilitates knowledge exchange and transfer between researchers and farmers. As a result, this video serves as a foundation for farmers to conduct plot trials, comparing service crops to their current practices.
