We may be biased but our steering group member @tjcsimpson is hosting THE event of the summer for those wanting to see the success and failures from a range of catch crops, summer and winter cover crops.

🚨 A new network for cover croppers old and new coming soon! 🚨 Great to have you onboard @anthonybecvar! What size cape do you take? 🦸‍♂️
AnthonyBecvar@anthonybecvar

@tjcsimpson has been so inspiring that I’m going to become a Cover Crop Champion for @AHDB_Cereals @Izzyeames1 and apparently I get a cape! Great catching up with @sea2soil and @bleating_lamb and thanks for another chance to harass @IntegratedSoils!

Heading to Groundswell? Hear from some of the team behind the UK’s first independent cover crops guide. On the day, we will unpack Return on Investment from cover crops & herbal leys in the arable rotation; can you quantify it, are they worth it, & how do you maximise it? 💬

Cover crop folk, pls help. We haven't managed to spray off our cover crops & we couldn't graze them due to dog walkers. Should I still try and spray off ASAP, or wait until just before drilling (if conditions ever improve)? Mainly linseed, phacelia, vol barley. @CoverCropsGuide

Our steering group recently met to set an ambitious agenda for the progression of this independent, farmer-led guide. We hope to forge a nationwide community, rooted in collaboration & knowledge sharing for farmers at every stage of their cover cropping journey #covercropsguide

#covercrops not as massive this year, mainly due to the radish never getting going. However, this has given the berseem #clover an opportunity to flourish. Addition of linseed was a good move too. The value of a mix! ⁦@SustainableLsps⁩ ⁦@YorkshireWater#soilhealth

“By working with farmers in vulnerable catchments both water companies hope to mitigate diffuse nitrate leaching to add long-term resilience to water supply” Great to see these cover crops initiatives working for all involved, do we need more like this? Who’s involved in one?
