Abstract

As combines continue to roll across Midwestern farm fields, the machines serve up reminders about the vast technological advancements in modern farming (see e.g., Castillo, June 3, 2024; Farm Progress, February 15, 2024). There are also reminders that technology for conservation practices and sustainable farming systems has not advanced at the same pace or to a similar degree, presenting opportunities for research and development. The DIRECT4AG project seeks to facilitate the adoption of emerging agricultural advancements that create value for the farmer, while also facilitating productive and sustainable farming practices (farmdoc daily, October 21, 2024; October 14, 2024). This third article in the series reviews collaborative efforts with other research projects to test effective ways to implement cover crops into commercial agricultural systems.
