Summary in the original language of the document
Intercropping cereals with legumes in organic systems allows a better crop use of resources, brings a higher biodiversity in the agricultural landscape, and delivers ecosystem services (soil fertility and health, C sequestration and water regulation). These benefits can add extra value to the produced pasta.

Teaser: | Learn about the benefits of wheat/pea intercropping for nutritional quality, resource use and ecosystem services. |
What problem does the tool address?: | While traditional pasta has become a staple food worldwide, several public health strategies agree that its nutritional qualities could be improved. The quality improvement through crop diversification has not been sufficiently studied in semi-arid climate and organic production. |
What solution does the tool offer?: | Intercropping winter wheat with field peas in organic systems enables to increase in the protein content of the cultivated cereal, and so its nutritional quality. |
