PROFILES IN SOIL HEALTH
“Benefits of Cover Cropping Systems” With Trevor and Kristy Zantow, Leola, SD
“Cover Crops allowed us to graze the cattle more months of the year, our feed needs were diminished, and the work load dropped to just a fraction of what it was in the past. We also needed a lot less equipment with this plan. So for us, it allowed a better quality of life for me and my family, and as it turned out it is a better quality of life for the soil.”
