Cover Crops

Cover Crops are more than just a Cost-Share program: Protect Your Land, Your Soil, and Your Legacy.

As a landowner, you know your most valuable asset isn’t your fence line – it’s the soil within it. Protecting that soil means looking beyond short-term gains and thinking about long-term sustainability. That’s where cover crops come in, not just as a checkbox for a cost-share program, but a conservation minded investment in the future of your land and farming operation in general. Cover crops aren’t just for farmers chasing incentive dollars. They’re for landowners who understand that soil left unprotected is soil at risk. Whether you actively farm or lease your land, BMPs (Best Management Practices) and conservation practices like cover cropping help you:

Keep the soil in place
Keep our waters clean
Build long-term soil health
Support the future productivity of your land
