Cover Crop Guide

Description

Soil fertility and structure are under severe pressure through use of heavy machinery, intensive rotations and declining organic matter content. Compounded by increased weed, disease and pest problems, cover cropping has become a popular cultural means to begin the journey to remedying this. Recent reforms to the Common Agricultural Policy also mean that cover crops can be used to meet ‘Greening’ requirements.
