Cover crops can make a big difference over time! Michigan farmer John Burke shares how a decade of cover cropping has helped build organic matter, improve soil structure, retain water, and reduce erosion on his farm.

As harvest gets closer (or started for some of you!), don’t forget about your cover crops! Your choice to plant before, during, or after harvest comes with its own advantages and challenges. Learn about your options for cover crops this fall: resources.ipmcenters.org/res… #SoyCheckoff #ScienceForSuccess #CoverCrops

“The most likely cause of soybean stem purpling is the buildup of anthocyanins in the stem tissue. Anthocyanins are non-photosynthetic pigments that help protect plant cells from oxidative damage caused by too much light.” From The Science Behind Late Season Purple Soybean Stems doi.org/10.31274/cpn-2021092… by @dsmuelle @badgerbean @ISU_IPM +more @SoybeanScience1 @SoyResearchInfo #soybean #USSoy

Not all cover crops are the same! Before planting, consider your next crop, your goals, and how much biomass you can manage. Hear from Carl Coleman on why asking the right questions can make all the difference with your cover crops: ow.ly/kF8H50ZEXKX #SoyCheckoff #ScienceForSuccess #CoverCrops
