Cover Crop Survey

Here is a survey link for U.S. farmers who have grown cover crops in recent years.  This is a survey sponsored by the USDA Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) program and being carried out by the Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC).  This survey about cover crops is brief and can be completed online in 5-10 minutes.  Farmers who fill out the survey by March 15th will be eligible for a random drawing to receive a $100 cash gift card from CTIC or the SARE cover crops book.  The link to the survey is: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CTICCoverCropSARE

 

Individuals with questions about the survey can contact Chad Watts with CTIC (email: watts@ctic.org) or Rob Myers with SARE (email: myersrob@missouri.edu).

Cover Crop Survey

CTIC Cover Crop Survey – Get it done right away!

Chad Watts, CTIC Project Manager, asked me to help CTIC get a survey out for farmers using cover crops.

Chad writes:

The intent of the survey is to go out to only those folks who are using or have used cover crops, because the information in the survey is very specific to that intended audience. We will gladly accept either the electronic version or the paper version of the completed survey.

The paper version of the Cover Crops Survey 21-Jun-2012 can be returned to me using the address at the beginning of the survey. The link for the survey online is http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KPZCRWP.

Chad also relayed:

Respondents who complete the survey by July 20th and provide their e-mail address will be put into a drawing for a chance to win a gift card.
