New web tool launched concerning cover crop programs

iawa-2

Farmers can browse, filter, and compare cover crop incentive programs by using a new, first-of-its-kind website in Iowa, costsharecompare.com, built by the Iowa Agriculture Water Alliance.

The goal is to help farmers transition to using cover crops by making it easier to find and sign up for cost share.

In addition to cover crops, the web tool features payment programs for no-till, strip till, nutrient management, and extended crop rotations.

Cover crop incentives offset costs for seed or application and can also help mitigate the risk of yield drags, minimizing impact on pocketbooks while maximizing long-term farming and water quality benefits.
