NDSU Extension is hosting its 2026 Cover Crops, Forages, & Soil Health Field Day on Tuesday, September 22nd, from 8:30 am – 2:45 pm Central at the NDSU campus research plots in Fargo, North Dakota
Opportunities to incorporate winter cover crops, forages, and perennials into various cropping systems will be the focus of a North Dakota State University field day on Tuesday, September 22, 2026. Led by Marisol Berti and Clair Keene, presenters will demonstrate and discuss the benefits of cover crops and perennials and how to establish alfalfa in an annual cash crop like sorghum.
This educational event will focus on the benefits of cover crops, perennial forages and grain, and establishing alfalfa and other perennials in an intercrop system.
Would you like to know more about planting pollinator-friendly plants to support beneficial insects? Do you want to know more about perennial crops such as Kernza and Silflower? Have you ever wondered about alfalfa roots and what they do? Or, do you want to know more about winter camelina and why there is so much hype about it these days?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you should attend!
