Old Rotation



The Old Rotation is a soil fertility experiment on the Auburn University campus in Auburn, Alabama and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Old Rotation experiment, which started in 1896, is the third oldest ongoing field crop experiment in the United States, the oldest continuous cotton experiment in the world, and was the first experiment to show that a cotton/legume rotation would allow soil to support a cotton crop indefinitely.
