Is Harvesting Cover Crops for Hay Profitable When Planting Corn and Soybean in Tennessee?
Winter cover crops can improve the soil’s moisture-holding capacity, reduce soil water evaporation, and mitigate water-induced soil erosion; however, economic studies show mixed results on cover crop impacts on profits.

Soybean Relative Maturity, Not Row Spacing, Affected Interseeded Cover Crops Biomass
Adoption of cover crop interseeding in the northwestern Corn Belt in the USA is limited due to inadequate fall moisture for establishment, short growing season, additional costs, and need for adapted winter-hardy species. This study evaluated three cover

Dual and Triple Intercropping: Potential Benefits for Annual Green Manure Production
Greater species diversity in natural ecosystems increases plant biomass production and stability. Intercropping is an agricultural practice that aims to accrue the benefits of species diversity by growing two or more species simultaneously in the same ...

Farmer perspectives about cover crops by non-adopters
The SARE/CTIC national farmer survey has assessed farmer experiences and perceptions about cover crops six times from early 2013 to early 2020. In most years, approximately 2,000 farmers responded to the survey questions, a majority of which were cover ...

Impact of the Timing and Use of an Insecticide on Arthropods in Cover-Crop-Corn Systems
Cover crops provide a habitat for pests and beneficial arthropods. Unexpected pest pressure in a cover-crop-to-corn system can occur and result in increased use of insecticides.
