Interseeding Cover Crops
A UW-Madison agronomist talks about interseeding research results. He discusses how he successfully used a modified no till drill for corn, and why soybeans provided too much shade to be

Cover crop establishment following processed vegetable culture in Western Oregon is a challenge because harvest often occurs late into the fall. Soil may already be saturated from fall rains, and
The main objectives of this multi-year project were to: 1) Evaluate how planting times, seeding rates, and seeding equipment affected multi-species cover crop establishment. 2) Investigate three different cover crop
Cover crop establishment in late-season crops, like sweet corn, may be difficult due to the relatively short operational window following crop harvest. In regions like western Oregon, where fall-precipitation can
This project will develop and evaluate new cover crop planting strategies to improve cover crop establishment after late harvested crops. Cover crops add organic matter to the soil, improve soil
A trial was established to evaluate the soybean yield response to interseeding cover crops into growing soybean compared to soybean yield without interseeding cover crops (control). Four treatments of cover
Nutrient losses and soil erosion after soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) harvest are common in the US Upper Midwest. Cover crops need to provide adequate growth and cover to prevent
Multiple studies reported to the Midwest Cover Crop Council showing best practices for cover crop use in North Dakota row crop operations.
Winter cover crops provide a suite of benefits but their use is limited because there is often not enough time after harvesting crops in the fall to establish cover crops
A field experiment was conducted at three sites (New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland) in 2016 to test the effects of drill interseeding a cover crop mixture consisting of cereal rye
