Crop Rotation and Cover Cropping
In Crop Rotation and Cover Cropping, you can learn some of the thinking behind-and the actual nuts and bolts of-laying out a rotation for your farm. This volume, part of the NOFA guides, covers: Historical roots of cover-crop techniques Thinking beyond this season's cash crop (disease and pest reduction, weed suppression, cash vs. cover crops) What is a good rotation? (mapping the farm, grouping crops, sample groupings) The economics of rotations and cover cropping (organizing your work, reducing labor inputs, land and cover-crop seed costs) Including on-farm examples and detailed appendices.
