DeepRoot Lab
The DeepRootLab area has been prepared and this autumn intercropping between Lucerne and Winter Wheat will take place in 6 of the scheduled 24 plots.
In order to study root growth, the plan is to install 6 m long transparent tubes (minirhizotrons) in the soil. Installing long minirhizotrons is challenging and we are still working on the best drilling method.
