Table D: Farmers’ groups on crop management

Accompaniment of farmers and groups in changing crop system and crop management

Number Resources and tools Context of advisory Usability of the resource Examples
D1 Advisory on the diversification of cropping systems Individualised advice on cropping management and system Homogeneity of cultures promotes the development of pests and pesticide resistance - diversification reduces problems and doses  
D2 Process of co-designing a new cropping system on a farm or a group of farms Groups of farmers with an adviser looking for new crop management Re-building of the crop system during several years of group work French: Guide STEPHY (pdf)
D3 Using Discussion Groups, also called 'Exchange of experience groups', to give confidence to farmers when reducing pesticide rates The same group of farmers with an adviser gathered 3- 4 times a year at each others' farms. Farmers learn from each other The process of sharing information in an open manner enables all participants to learn from practical experience. The adviser can then bring this to other groups of farmers through his work Practiced by Teagasc in Ireland for 40 years to promote technology transfer amongst farmers see Teagasc website
