Soybean Production
Understanding the Importance of Cover Crop Planting Date
To encourage farmers to include more cover crops within their cropping systems, this project compares 1) different cereal rye seeding dates and rates before soybean, and 2) different planting dates of two clover species after soybean harvest and ahead of corn. Farmers will gain better insights into cover crop planting, seeding rate recommendations and best management practices.
