Cover Crop

Cover crops are plants used to slow erosion, improve soil health, enhance water availability, smother weeds, help control pests and diseases, increase biodiversity and bring a host of other benefits to farms.

Cover crops are being seeded all around Franklin County! Farmers plant cover crops with minimum tillage seed incorporation techniques as a way to manage water, nurtients, soil health, erosion, pests, weeds, and much more on their fields.

​The Highboy plants cover crops across 60 feet in between corn rows by broadcasting the seed under the canopy.
