Real Ag
Cover Crops
Season 10 Episode 5 | 27m 46s
We will take a look at cover crops on this episode of Real Ag.
Planted to cover the soil, rather than for harvesting is the purpose of the cover crop. Managing erosion, as well as its fertility and quality are a few of the reasons to have a cover crop as well. Dealing with weeds and other pests and diseases as well creating a larger and more biodiverse ecosystem are some of the other benefits of having cover crops.
