Thinking beyond this season's cash crop (disease and pest reduction, weed suppression, cash vs. cover crops)
What is a good rotation? (mapping the farm, grouping crops, sample groupings)
The economics of rotations and cover cropping (organizing your work, reducing labor inputs, land and cover-crop seed costs)
Including on-farm examples and detailed appendices.
