SUMMARY:Virtual Field Day - A New Direction in Cover Crops: Developing Perennial Ground Cover for Corn Systems in the Midwest
DESCRIPTION:Join Iowa Learning Farms\, the Iowa Nutrient Research Center (INRC)\, and Conservation Learning Group (CLG)\, for a FREE virtual field day. \nThe discussion will include D. Raj Raman\, Morrill Professor of Agricultural & Biosystems Engineering at Iowa State University\, and Daniel Andersen\, Associate Professor of Agricultural & Biosystems Engineering at Iowa State University. \nRegenPGC stands for Regenerating America’s Working Landscapes to Enhance Natural Resources and Public Goods through Perennial Groundcover. The vision RegenPGC is to make year-round groundcover on working lands the norm for Midwestern US agriculture and beyond. Central to the approach is developing and de-risking perennial groundcover (PGC) systems\, where a perennial cover crop is planted once and then persists for multiple years alongside annual crops such as corn and soybean. \nThis project started nearly two decades ago\, with Dr. Ken Moore\, Distinguished Professor of Agronomy\, and RegenPGC Educational Theme Leader\, and his team exploring ways of planting a perennial cover between rows of corn. Early successes led to funding from the Sun Grant program\, INRC\, and others\, and eventually to USDA’s-National Institute for Food and Agriculture Sustainable Agricultural Systems Coordinated Agricultural Projects program. RegenPGC was formally started in September\, 2021\, as a 5-year transdisciplinary project combining research\, extension\, education\, and commercialization efforts.
