Cover crops continue to grow in popularity due to their many benefits; including reduced soil erosion, weed suppression potential, reduced nitrogen and phosphorus loads entering water bodies, and increased soil organic matter. This field day aims to equip attendees with selection, best management practices for cover crops and tips for successfully adding them to your operation.
Join Shane Laurie, Western NY Territory Field Manager and Scott Rushe, Forage Market Development Manager with Seedway at Country Crossroads Feed for a tour of demonstration plot containing several individual cover crops and some mixes. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and share their experiences with cover cropping as well.
