18 David Brown: Mustard Seed Farms 80 ac organic fresh vegetables This year I reduced my fertilizer bill about 60% by working with Nick and Dan and still got great yields This project helps me evaluate my cover cropping program
19 Brian & Jason Montecucco 600 ac (15 COG) fresh vegetables Jason Montecucco Dan Sullivan We have areas on our farm that need organic matter to rebuild the soil from years of intensive farming. We want to use cover crops to prevent nutrients from leaching and capture nutrients essential to plant growth.

21 Sauvie Island Organics 20 ac organic fresh vegetables ~400 CSA members, 25 restaurants Kristin Pool Scott Latham "We didn t give our cover crops enough N credit. The Calculator showed us we were getting twice the N we thought. Now, no N is applied to our head lettuce, we get the same yield and save $275/ac on fertilizer" We invest our savings in additional N to our broccoli field and get higher broccoli yields.

23 Future work? Outreach and Extension Conferences and workshops Improve Extension & NRCS technical information about cover crops and nutrient management Improve cover crop establishment in marginal conditions (i.e. relay seeding, compost applied with seed, etc.) Cover crop variety trials Increase communication between ARS and Extension & farmers Research Degree day sensitive N mineralization models Regional predictions of cover crop N mineralization Cover crop breeding Nick Andrews 1 and Dan Sullivan (503) nick.andrews@oregonstate.edu
