Growing a cover crop or intercropping this year? You could be eligible for funding up to $50/acre for this best management practice, while improving soil health on your farm!
Cover crops help maintain a living root as long as possible throughout the year. By doing this it actively feeds soil microbes, improves nutrient cycling, water infiltration rates and improves soil structure, which helps cut down on input costs.
Having a diverse mix of warm and cool season plants growing together symbiotically , creates a more resilient crop to extreme weather changes and events and creates diversity in your soil which improves soil health and improves how your soil functions.
