Cover Crop

Cover Crop:A cover crop is a type of crop grown primarily for soil health purposes rather than for harvest. Cover crops are often planted between rows of cash crops or in fallow fields. They help to improve soil fertility, prevent erosion, and suppress weeds and pests. Common cover crops include legumes such as clover and alfalfa, grasses such as rye and oats, and brassicas such as mustard and rapeseed.
