We can fall into a trap of a monoculture in cover crops just like we can fall into a trap of monoculture in cash crops.
If I can take $100 to $150 of beef off of (feeding costs), that's pretty good return on my investment, besides the benefits it's doing for the soil.
Cover crops are highly versatile and many span across seasons, in this article, we’re going to do our best to organize them for quick research.
In part one of this three-part series on the economics of cover crops, we explore how to reduce farm inputs.
Succession planning is about figuring out how to pass the baton to the next generation. It involves creating a plan for the smooth transfer of leadership.
Crimson clover provides early spring nitrogen for full-season crops in Southern regions and rapid summer or fall growth in cool-season areas.
With FIXatioN’s low seeding rate of 3-5 pounds per acre in a mix, and its incredible ability to fix nitrogen in your soil, it basically pays for itself – not to mention its ability to suppress weeds with its incredible Bio-Massive stems.
Escalating fertilizer prices inspired the creation of this nitrogen-fixing cover crop and forage. Discover what makes Frosty such a unique legume and how it can fit into your cropping cycle.
Domino is effective in preserving soil on sloping fields and other erosion-prone areas. It is also used as a cover crop or living mulch in orchards. In combination with grasses, the nitrogen fixation of the clover enhances the overall health of the grass to promote better soil stabilization.
Dynamite red clover, a high-yielding, double-cut clover, was selected for both improved disease resistance and forage production. It is ideal for use throughout the United States. Dynamite exhibits early spring growth and abundant regrowth after harvest which improves the overall life of stand.
The goal behind the development of AberLasting was to produce a hybrid between white clover (Trifolium repens) and caucasian clover (T. ambiguum) that incorporated the desirable traits of both species.
