Agricultural Practices

Cropping systems refer to the techniques and strategies used in agricultural practices to cultivate and manage crops effectively. These systems involve decisions about crop selection, rotation, and management practices such as irrigation, fertilization, and pest control. The goal is to optimize productivity, conserve resources like soil and water, and promote sustainability in farming practices.

Cropping Systems Announcements

Cover Crop Garden: Winter Brassica Mix

One of the more common “newer” mixing ideas is to add a brassica or non-legume broadleaf to the cover crop mix, either in place or with legumes.

Cover Crop Garden: Winter Legume Mix

April 16, 2024

Mixing in winter legumes to a winter small grains mixture is prevalent in other parts of the county and world. The benefits of the small grains mixes are still present in these systems.
