Cover Crop Field Day at Cornell University
Join Cornell’s New York Soil Health Team members, Cayuga and Tompkins Soil and Water Districts, and King’s AgriSeeds/Cayuga Ag Enterprises to view and discuss cover crops. We have summer cover crops (planted in July) and fall cover crops (planted in mid-August and mid-September). Single species and multi-species mixes will be on display. Talk with the experts to learn how to select the correct cover crop and make a custom mix to meet your specific soil health and crop production goals.
Stay as the sun sets for dinner and continued conversation.
