The Blesh Soil & Agroecosystems Lab at the University of Michigan is partnering with Great Lakes farmers to better understand variation in cover crop performance across different growing conditions. This study will contribute to improved cover crop management recommendations for the region. In return for completing a short Farm & Management survey followed by a Field Assessment in the spring, participants will receive $50 per field (for up to two fields) and personalized data on their cover crops. If you are currently growing overwintering cover crops and are interested in participating, please fill out this form! We will reach out soon with more details.
