This is a great way to see how different cover crops grow in
Michigan. Also a good chance to talk to farmers and extension educators about
cover crop selection, sourcing seed, growing and building your soil. Hope you
can join us on April 14
Cover Crops or
Forages?
Join us on April 14 as we discuss
how fertilizer-saving and soil quality-enhancing cover crops can also be an
excellent source of high-quality forage from mid-summer late into the fall and
extremely early in the spring! This event begins at 3:00
p.m. just east of the intersection of Plains Road and Tuttle Road in Mason,
MI. We will have an interactive tour of a replicated cover crop
research plot that was established in wheat stubble in August of 2009.
Species in these plots include:
· Grass
pea
· Turnips
· Various
combinations of the above
