[QUOTE="gst, post: 28234, member: 373"] Talk to the Burleigh County NRCS if you want more information. There is a small but growing number of farmers that are using cover crops after they harvest a crop. Gabe Brown from Bismarck has been doing it for several years and is a pretty good authority on it. We have done it up here, but the later seeding time frames make it harder to get a long enough growing season after harvest usually to allow the benefits they see farther south in the state. Jamestown is far enough south. Just because you may not be seeing it does nopt mean some farmers are not doing things "on their own".
