Crop Rotation

[Athos]

Here is another entry for the CCC7. This entry is for the technological advance category:

Crop rotation increases production of crops and avoids a decrease in soil fertility. In the Middle Ages, the three-year rotation was practiced by farmers in Europe with a rotation of rye or winter wheat, followed by spring oats or barley, then letting the soil rest by leaving it fallow during the third stage.

Hello!

A really busy garden here! Those chicken and birds are so sweet! The thatched roof looks great as well!

Cheers,

Great job Athos, sorry I didn't comment on this sooner. The fields are great, the house is nicely built, the tree is the usual fare. I love the grey crows. The scarecrow looks cool. The lime green flower bothers me how it stands out, but each to there own. The blue door and roof on the house look like they belong. So all in all, a nice creation, good luck.

Quite the creative interpretation of the invention category! The creation looks good, with a nice farmhouse (well done on the roofing), tree, and landscape. The only problem I have is that without the description I doubt I could have seen it was supposed to be crop rotation instead of just a regular farm build. I don't know how you could have conveyed the movement of the rotation without multiple scenes though.

Nice, you managed to show the whole process in such a little space... and a lovely little cottage.

It looks just like my grandma's countryside house!

I like it1

She did not have the scarecrow... but everything else is perfectly placed.

Very creative MOC!

Nice job!

This reminds me of the small hut that Obi Won lived in A new Hope.

Great work!
