Cover Crops With Purpose: Weed Suppression, Soil Health and Unexpected Benefits

Cover Crops With Purpose: Weed Suppression, Soil Health and Unexpected Benefits

Learn about the benefits and challenges of diversifying your farm with cover crops, small grains and extended rotations. We’ll share our experiences with using cover crops as part of our weed control system, growing small grains, soil health, and navigating crop insurance and NRCS programs. We’ll also see cereal rye and oats just before harvest, and evaluate the weed suppressing benefits of cover crops before soybeans
