Cowra Case Study Part 2: Cover crop + strip till … a winning combination for Soil Health

Cover crops provide multiple benefits, including reduced soil crusting, increased infiltration rates, reduced compaction, weed suppression and nutrient cycling.

Combining cover crops with strip till is proving a winner for vegetable soils and crops. In the Cowra Case Study Part 1 (Cover crop + rolled ground cover + strip till = record farm cucumber yield) we detailed cucumber crop benefits

In Part 2, we dig a bit deeper to look at the soil health benefits from cover crop + roller crimper + strip till which underpinned the outstanding yield result.
