Repeated visual monitoring

Supported by digital photography (2 weekly):

• Regular soil surface assessment (crusting/surface structure, roughness).
• Crop characteristics: height (m), cover fraction, bio-mass, yield.
• Mulch cover fraction, digital analysis using 1m² frames at sample locations.
• Erosion features (rill density and dimensions).
