Focus Area 1
Agro-ecological Potential
Scientific Hypothesis
- Intercropping cash crops with leguminous service crops can enhance biodiversity and ecosystem services without compromising productivity.
- Trade-offs exist between maximising ecosystem services and optimising crop yield.
Aims
- Conduct long-term systems experiments for studies on ecological interactions and ecosystem services above and below ground
- Describe trade-offs and identify causal links between plant production and ecosystem services
