In Crop Rotation and Cover Cropping, you can learn some of the thinking behind—and the actual nuts and bolts of—laying out a rotation for your farm.
This volume, part of the NOFA guides, covers:
• Historical roots of cover-crop techniques
• Thinking beyond this season's cash crop (disease and pest reduction, weed suppression, cash vs. cover crops)
• What is a good rotation? (mapping the farm, grouping crops, sample groupings)
• The economics of rotations and cover cropping (organizing your work, reducing labor inputs, land and cover-crop seed costs)
Including on-farm examples and detailed appendices.
