Farmers Sought for Great Lakes Cover Crop Project

 The Great Lakes Cover Crop Project is recruiting farmers to participate for the 2024-25 season! This community science effort brings together farmers from across the upper Midwest to build a regional database of cover crop performance.

This then allows for identifying what cover crops and management practices work best across different farming conditions. Partnering farmers collect cover crop photos and height measurements from their fields in the spring, and in return receive a personalized report with cover crop biomass and nutrient estimates, along with $50 per field for up to three fields. Anyone growing overwintering cover crops this season in MI, OH, IN, IL, WI, or MN is eligible. Sign up here!
