TL;DR: Results from a 21-year study of agronomic and ecological performance of biodynamic, bioorganic, and conventional farming systems in Central Europe found crop yields to be 20% lower in the organic systems, although input of fertilizer and energy was reduced.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared organic and conventional farming systems at reduced and normal fertilization intensity (0.7 and 1.4 livestock units, LU) in a 7-year crop rotation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated in a comprehensive way soil chemical, as well as below and aboveground biological parameters of two organic and two conventional wheat farming systems that primarily differed in fertilization and weed management strategies.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a study on the quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in a 21-year agrosystem comparison between organic and conventional farming in central Europe are reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate data of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) performance from the DOK long-term systems experiment in Switzerland comparing two mixed organic (biodynamic and bioorganic: BIODYN and BIOORG) and a mixed conventional cropping system (CONFYM) using mineral fertilisers and farmyard manure at two fertilisation intensities (level 1: 50% of standard fertilization, level 2: standard fertilisation) since 1978.
