Abstract
Local factors influence the translation of Conservation Agriculture (CA) into practices. To categorize the diversity of farmers’ CA practices, we combined archetypal and hierarchical clustering analysis. In Wallonia, we were able to identify three main CA-types with salient practices and two intermediate CA-types, discriminated by organic certification, the proportion of tillage-intensive crops and temporary grassland in the crop sequence.
