The yield gap between organic and conventional production varies from crop to crop due to different crop-specific factors. While cereals and tubers mainly suffer from nutrient availability (basically nitrogen deficiency), legumes are difficult to be managed because of weeds and diseases. Insect pests are particularly important in oil crops. Each crop group shows different susceptibility to the various yield-limiting factors. Hence, agricultural practices such as variety selection and crop rotation design have a major impact on crop yield and quality.. Roger Clemens, DrPH, CFS, CNS, FACN, FIAST.
