The Corn Marketing Program of Michigan, Michigan Soybean Committee, Michigan Pork Producers Association, Michigan Chapter of The Nature Conservancy, and Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP) hope to establish cover crops on at least 55,000 acres.

Corn Marketing Program of Michigan Director of Research and Agronomy Kristin Poley will lead the project over the next four years.
