Cover cropping used to be subsidized back in the 1980,s then was nixed
A few years ago the USDA was smart
enough to implement it again. Around me everyone cover crops with winter rye but then again if the government is paying you too, why not? I think it is only on HEL highly erodible
land, which does make sense.
The real question is; when they stop paying how many farms will stop the practice?
