This site contains research on cover crops for sustainable agriculture developed or published by the Exploration of Cover Crops for Sustainable Agriculture, with support from IDRC's program initiatives MINGA (Alternative Approaches to Natural Resource Management in Latin America and the Caribbean), People, Land and Water (PLAW) , and Community-based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) in cooperation with various other agencies. This site provides empirical evidence of the contribution of cover crops to sustainable agriculture.
Research Highlights
  • Innovation in agriculture must be needs driven, not technology driven. Sustained and widespread use of cover crops (and perhaps any other soil improving practice using organic inputs) will only occur if the biomass (seeds, leaves, vines) can also be used in food and forage systems. Research should focus on this challenge Cover crops provide significant benefits to soil including nutrients, nutrient cycling, weed control, soil protection and soil improvement. These benefits vary mainly in light of management practices and climate affecting the quantity and timing of biomass produced.

sustainable agriculture
Today's industrial agriculture produces a bountiful harvest enough food for our country and for export abroad as well. But agriculture's dependence on chemical pesticides and fertilizers is also producing damaged soil, depleted groundwater and polluted rivers.
UCS promotes another vision of agriculture one that views agriculture as a system working in harmony with the environment while continuing to be highly productive. This kind of agriculture would be sustainable far into the future.
Sustainable agriculture is holistic: it treats the farm as an integrated whole composed of elements like soil, plants, animals, and insects whose interaction can be adjusted and enriched to solve problems and maximize yields.
Sustainable agriculture is also scientific: it relies on knowledge about the elements of the system and their interaction to achieve its results. It is a powerful approach that can produce high yields and profits for farmers.
UCS is working to transform government policies so that they support sustainable agriculture as they have long supported industrial agriculture.
These policies will need to include subsidy programs to help farmers through a transition to sustainable agriculture and the occasional crop failure, research to understand the interactions among all elements of farming and to produce appropriate new technologies, and extension services to update farmers about new developments in science and technology.
