Research Priorities for Advancing Adoption of Cover Crops in Agriculture-intensive Regions
Journal of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Community Development, 2016 Given certain ecologic and agronomic characteristics of conventional corn and soybean mono-cultures, cropping systems reliant solely on these two commodities inevitably lose soil and nutrients. Leaky cropping systems not only hamper society with negative
