Watch your mailbox for an invitation from your local SWCD, NRCS, or extension office for dates for cover crop meetings! Over the next 6 weeks I am speaking at a number of meetings on cover crops.
One of the highlights includes the CTC meetings in Ada, OH on February 24-25. The “cover crop emphasis day” is on Thursday, February 24, and the itinerary is filled with outstanding speakers. I am blessed to be there speaking on the topic: “Using Legumes for Cover Crops.”
Also AgriFlite, an aerial applicator from northern Indiana, will be presenting (they have done some awesome work on putting the science alongside the art of flying on cover crops). See the blog post about their work in 2010.
