Dr. Chris Baxter, a Professor of Soil & Crop Science at UW-Platteville and an Extension Specialist, is here to share some interesting findings from a soil health study. This study was part of a project started back in 2018, and it was carried out by the UW-Weeds Team under the guidance of Dr. Rodrigo Werle. The main focus was to see how cereal rye can help keep weeds at bay, especially those pesky ones like waterhemp. The study provided great chance to see how using cover crops over multiple years can make a difference in soil health. Tune in to hear what Dr. Baxter and his colleagues have discovered from this study.
