2021 NREC Cover Crop Guide

2021 NREC Cover Crop Guide_Dec2021

https://forms.gle/FoAUuhrx7PT54Ube7

This 16-page Cover Crop Guide was created through the collaboration of NREC-funded researchers. Together they pooled their research results and compiled the information so that new adopters can easily understand the technical aspects (why, what, when, how much, where and other considerations) of planting cover crops. NREC, along with the researchers, is encouraging producers to “think a systems approach” when planting cover crops, rather than thinking of cover crops only as an additional input.
