Cover Crops

This is the spring walkthrough of one rep of the Ohio State University’s 2020 fall planted cover crop trial.

Walk through one rep of the Ohio State University’s 2020 fall planted cover crop trial in early December before winter’s cold sets in.

In Luling, TX, we observed these plots in late January after 90 days of growth and 15 inches of unusual rain. This rainfall challenged some species and benefited others. Part 1 covers ryegrass, while Parts 2 & 3 feature clover, hairy vetch, and peas.

In this video we see how deep LowBoy's roots go by exploring a soil pit. LowBoy low-growing annual ryegrass was tested as SARG-16.

This is the late-spring walkthrough of one rep of the Ohio State University’s 2020 fall planted cover crop trial just before they were harvested.

We visit Allendale, SC to review our Patagonia, Rapido, Big Boss, as well as crimson, balansa, peas, wheat, triticale, rye and more.

Note how planting date and ground moisture differences can affect certain species.

In Newton, MS, we walked through the cover crop plots. Note that much of what these videos show at this time is regrowth ability and maturity differences.

In Eastern Pennsylvania, growers using LowBoy with crimson clover notice healthier corn stands and much improved soil.

Join an on-farm evaluation of Lowboy and medium red clover that was planted in Juniata County, PA (Mifflintown, PA).
