From cover crop to cash crop: Managing residues in veg production
Article
On-farm and crop management
Cover crops are great tools for soil management. Their benefits can include improving soil structure and health, reducing erosion and weeds, adding nitrogen and contributing to weed and disease control.
With cover crops able to produce more than 100 tonnes of fresh plant material per hectare, it is essential to successfully manage the transition from a cover crop to a cash crop.
The Soil Wealth ICP project developed this fact sheet to outline the key factors and management options to consider.
This resource has been produced by the Hort Innovation-funded Soil Wealth and ICP project – jointly delivered by RM Consulting Group and Applied Horticultural Research.
