PROSPECT, TENNESSEE
I truly believe the long term benefits will way repay you. The weed control, and evaporation control is worth a lot of $. I have been extensively testing different covers, mixes, methods, trying to find a "cheap" , "working" system. I have a couple of mixes that can be made for less than $30, that include 5 species. Each persons land has different requirements, so nothing is perfect till you find it. Maybe you need to look at what you may be loosing without covers to help justify them, for example... topsoil, organic matter, microbes...etc.....(live soil)
My fall cover is treated just like my spring cash crop, planted timely, and with precision. Believe me if I didn't think there was a lot to gain, we wouldn't be harvesting and planting at the same time!!!!!
