Hi There!

I am in the process of envisioning for a plot of land in NE Iowa that is overgrown with 16-foot tall ragweed (no joke) and small black locust saplings. My current thinking is to clear/mow the area and then burn the brush to diminish re-seeding, then plant a cover crop this fall before the frost. Does anyone have suggestions for handling these particular species? Ideas for cover-crops that would both suppress weeds and be functional as living mulch in the spring?

Thanks for your input!
