A web-based cover crop decision tool for growers in Eastern Canada .: A58-1/2-2014E-PDF
The use of cover crops can be an important tool in sustainable agriculture, with many cover crops recognized to provide benefits in suppression of nematodes, weeds and other pests, as well as improving soil tilth and optimizing nutrient cycling. There is currently a growing interest in using cover crops as part of integrated management strategies to reduce pesticide input, in particular herbicides, in Canada's eastern provinces.
