Using Cover Crops to Build Your Most Valuable Asset

Ray McCormick

Grower

Vincennes, Ind.

 

Fourth generation Indiana no-tiller Ray McCormick shares how he sets up and seeds his cover crops on the 2,000-acre farm where he raises corn, soybeans, wheat and beef cattle with his son, Nate.

 

McCormick also details how he manages residue for maximum cover crop emergence, how he tackles challenges with terminating cover crops in the spring and how he has built up the water holding capacity of his soil. Seeding cover crops on his 100% no-till farm since 2008, McCormick understands why building organic matter and enabling your soil to sequester carbon is building your most valuable asset.
