Project Background
This project consists of demonstrating that cover crops can be grown under a wide range of climate conditions & crop rotations. Additionally, the project seeks to demonstrate that cover crops can be grown to provide income above & beyond just benefitting the soil. On-farm demonstrations will be used to compare fallow, green cover crop, grazed cover crop and no-till cover crop seeding on a side-by-side basis. Field tours will be held to demonstrate efficacy of project.
