One perceived cost of integrating winter cover cropping in maize (Zea mays L.) and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] rotation systems is the potential negative impact on soil water storage
Earlier this year 258 Nebraska farmers responded to a UNL survey, sharing information and insights on their current management practices and the use of cover crops in Nebraska cropping systems.
An increasing number of growers are integrating cover crops into their cropping systems with goals of reducing erosion, increasing soil health properties, adding/capturing nitrogen, grazing livestock, or aiding in weed

When deciding how best to use cover crops, it is important to consider the ultimate goal. Is it to increase soil organic matter, increase nutrient availability to subsequent crops, reduce
Growing interest in cover cropping may provide a way to recouple crop and livestock production in semiarid Montana. This two-year field study examined edaphic and agronomic implications of cool-vs warm-season
This is a study of cover crop mixes (CCMs) grown during the fallow period on soil properties, water use, and wheat yield. CCMs included plant groups that 1) fix
Warm and cool season cover crop species evaluated for forage output in Northwestern Montana
Studies have found cover crops improved soil health, prevented erosion, reduced compaction, assisted in weed control, and have increased commodity yields over time (Myers et al., 2015). Cartwright (2016) found
Although there are several soil and nutrient-related aspects of cover crops that have been thoroughly investigated, there are still questions that need to be addressed regarding their utility in a
Wheat is produced as a single-and double-crop depending on the location in the U.S. and is an excellent cover crop for highly erodible soils typically found in upstate Missouri. Inter-and
Cover crops can serve as a useful tool of an integrated weed management program. Our research has shown that cover crops such as cereal rye can provide good control of
The major goal of this Missouri termination date trial is to determine if delayed termination of cover crops in the spring affects grain yield.
