“By working with farmers in vulnerable catchments both water companies hope to mitigate diffuse nitrate leaching to add long-term resilience to water supply” Great to see these cover crops initiatives working for all involved, do we need more like this? Who’s involved in one?

#covercrops not as massive this year, mainly due to the radish never getting going. However, this has given the berseem #clover an opportunity to flourish. Addition of linseed was a good move too. The value of a mix! ⁦Sustainable Landscapes⁩ ⁦Yorkshire Water 💧⁩ #soilhealth

Our steering group recently met to set an ambitious agenda for the progression of this independent, farmer-led guide. We hope to forge a nationwide community, rooted in collaboration & knowledge sharing for farmers at every stage of their cover cropping journey #covercropsguide

Great too see the vision of the guide in action already #knowledgesharing #covercropsguide
