Midwest cover crop council has a book you can get that you can really research species. And then work with a good cover crop dealer to build yourself a nice program

Depending on your climate, maybe some of the things I use might become a nuisance or invasive to you because of your climate. For example, I enjoy Italian or perennial ryegrass. But a guy way down south. He might punch you right in the mouth for saying to use that plant voluntarily.


For me on my farm because of my growing season the tools I have available to me I like to go into young corn like V3.

I like oats as the bulk of my program. Wonderful root system, good nutrient cycler, They're just an overall great crop

buckwheat, fantastic phosphorus mover.

You could add a little bit of a mustard because it is a fumigant and a wonderful sulfur scavenger

I like the Italian or even a perennial ryegrass.

A couple brassicas

Hairy vetch
