CHCx3 Cover crop demonstration day

Come and join us at Morley for an interactive day exploring how drill date and rate influence cover crop growth and how cover crops influence carbon storage in the soil.

The day will include

• Field tour of our ongoing cover crop trials;
• Morning workshop: Overview of the CHCx3 cover crop trials;
• Afternoon presentation and discussion with Liz Bowles, Farm Carbon Toolkit on carbon storage in soils under cover crops.

Desired outcomes

• Better understanding of how drill dates and rates affect species growth;
• Understand the agronomic requirements for the chosen cover crops;
• Improved knowledge of how cover crops can increase soil organic matter and carbon capture within soils.
