Can winter-hardy clovers boost your bottom line? 🍀 Shalamar Armstrong shares new data on how the right planting dates and varieties protect yields while cutting fertilizer costs. Watch the full 2026 Indiana Small Farms Conference talk: youtu.be/XzdWyJQcAOY (@purdueag)

@grasslandJerry Well yes especially is the Carbon to Nitrogen Ratio is lower than others and greater root biomass

Was out looking at some cereal rye blocks and noticed some dense, heavy tillering plants that are less than half the height of the surrounding plants. Any interest in a high density, short statured cereal rye?

@grasslandJerry Hey Jerry, nice work!!! Where was this study conducted?

While the data is an extrapolation of research conducted on 4" diameter by 36" deep tubes, the data points to the fact that not all cover crops are the same. The Survivor Winter Peas put out some amazing roots.

Armstrong and Muse 3 Farms are excited to present our Ag. Institute, 3 Learning and Labs Days on the farm. Register your student here: forms.gle/5XspHcDgJNYSLu… Sponsor a Student or Donate here: app.autobooks.co/pay/muse-3-farm

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Excited to see Balansa Clover get off to a great start in our @ncrsare funded project "The feasibility of overwintering Legumes" in collaboration with @RichardRoth. Evidence of growth in Central Iowa and Southern Indiana. @GOSEEDCO @PurdueAg

Plan to attend Shalamar Armstrong’s presentation "Contributions of Infield Conservation to Sustainably Intensified Agricultural Systems" at the 2025 Indiana CCA Conference. For more information, please visit: indianacca.org/Program #InCCA2025 #IndianaCCA

One of my favorite labs within my Soil and Water Conservation lab, "Water Erosion" Thank you Amanda Kautz of NRCS for providing the simulator and professional insights. @PurdueAg @PurdueAgronomy @USDA_NRCS

@YichaoRui_PAL @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg It was my pleasure to share research insights with my Purdue Agriculture Fam!

Thank you Dr. Shalamar Armstrong (@CoverCropDr) for an inspiring and thought-provoking presentation, kicking off our fall seminar series in Purdue Agronomy. We are fortunate to have you as a courageous and forward-thinking leader! @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg

Field update 2nd yr of a project funded by @ILSoybean exploring starter fertilizer strategies to minimize yield drags in conservation tillage systems. 📷: Conventional vs Strip till vs No till vs No till w/ N+S @ILextension @IllinoisCropSci @FieldAdvisor

@PrezaFontes @ILSoybean @ILextension @IllinoisCropSci @FieldAdvisor Excellent! Let's see if it translates to yield differences.

Congratulations to Dr. Armstrong's Ph.D. student, Jude Addo-Chidie, who was awarded the Conservation Scholarship by the Soil and Water Conservation Service and completed their SWCD watershed leadership training.

@CoverCropDr Doing what he does best. Talking about the benefits of using #covercrops Attending the @IllinoisNrec sponsored field day near Lexington IL

And the Academic Family Tree Grows On! @PurdueAg @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAgAlumni @CoverCropDr

It's always gratifying to visit your former students in their current professional environment. Corey Lacey, Environmental Policy Manager at Illinois Soybean Association. @ILSoybean @PurdueAgronomy @AgScienceGuy @ILAgriculture @DrRichardRoth @IllinoisStateU
