This event is focused on no-till cover cropping strategies. Dr. Erik Smith, regional field crop specialist for CNYDLFC, will lead a farmer-to-farmer discussion on soil health and the benefits of cover crops. There will also be a display and demonstration of the farm's no-till drill, and a tour of several fields where the interseeding strategy was used.
