Conservation Agriculture Academy
A collection of expert articles, interviews, videos and conference reports on conservation agriculture and soil health.

At the invitation of KGZS – Kranj Institute, SACA joined a group of Australian farmers on the Kranj–Sora Plain to exchange experience on minimum tillage, water management, soil health and the resilience of farming systems.

To mark SACA’s 10th anniversary, farmers, researchers and policymakers met at AGRA to discuss how conservation agriculture can move beyond individual practices towards a long-term support framework based on healthy soils, measurable outcomes and practical farming experience.

A summary of Dr Gernot Bodner’s presentation at Soil Evolution 2026 on how soil structure, biological activity and conservation agriculture improve infiltration, reduce water losses and strengthen the drought resilience of farming systems.

The Slovenian Association for Conservation Agriculture (SZOK) is participating in an EIP project that develops inter-row cover crops to improve soil fertility, plant health, climate resilience and the sustainability of farms.

The Slovenian Association for Conservation Agriculture (SZOK) is participating in an EIP project developing practical, sustainable weed-control methods for organic conservation agriculture without herbicides or ploughing.

The pilot project developed practical solutions and materials to improve the efficiency, cost-effectiveness and environmental performance of livestock manure and slurry application.
