Science - Agriculture / Agricultural production (crops)

English term or phrase: fallow period

It is believed that crop production could return to its production levels prior to the civil war. However, this may be compromised by an increasing population density, which has led to a reduction in farm sizes and a reduction to two years of the fallow period in some areas.

يشير المصطلح إلى الفترة الزمنية التي يتم فيها إعداد الأرض وحرثها بدون البذار
Fallow land in the FAO-term glossary is أرض مستريحة but what is the correct Arabic term describing the period ?
