Brief Project Summary:

Are additional weed control measures such as organically approved herbicides needed for no-till organic soybeans? The project investigates the use of a cover crop roller to plant no-till soybeans into rye mulches, and compare no-till organic to conventionally-tilled organic soybeans in terms of yield and weed control.
