Subject: RE: cover crop fanatics



SE PA
I'm not sure what constitutes going from a fad to a trend but in our neck of the woods, the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, 18% of ALL farmland is cover cropped- Driven mostly by education and regulations to keep nutrients out of "the bay". Then you have this report just released a month ago that surveyed over 1200 farms that use cover crops. This chart reflects the trend in cover crop usage for those farmers. http://www.ctic.org/media/pdf/20142015CoverCropReport_Draft6.pdf
