Advanced Cover Cropping Insights from Farmer Experts - Steve Groff

It takes overcoming a lot of uncomfortableness to cover crop and plant green. This session will discuss planting green and the trials and tribulations over the last 10 years. Session highlights include: • Tips and tricks for successful termination of cover crops like annual ryegrass, cereal rye, and legumes • Understanding timing, method, and the current weather situation to maximize cover crop benefits and cash crop establishment • Finding balance in how green and how much biomass is a good balance to attain high yields • Developing processes that help the farm system as a whole (i.e. putting rape in the cover crop to help pollinators early in the season) This presentation is part of the 2017 National Conference on Cover Crops and Soil Health.
