Cover crops aren’t just a soil health trend—they’re a management tool with real impact. In this webinar, Marlon Winger of the NRCS Soil Health Division shares tested strategies for using cover crops to address common resource concerns across the Intermountain West. Learn how to match cover crop species to your goals, manage them in challenging climates, and improve outcomes like water retention, nutrient cycling, and livestock integration. Designed for producers and planners looking to get practical, region-specific guidance.
Join NRCS Soil Health Specialist Marlon Winger for a comprehensive and practical webinar exploring cover crop management strategies specifically tailored to the Intermountain West. Drawing on years of field experience and conservation planning, Marlon shares science-backed insights and producer-tested methods to help landowners and professionals build healthier, more resilient soils. You’ll learn the benefits of cover crops for improving soil health, water availability, and nutrient cycling, site-specific considerations for cover crop success in the Intermountain West, management practices for diverse systems—including no-till, dryland, and livestock-integrated operations, and so much more! This session goes beyond the basics to help participants understand how to design and manage cover crop systems that address real-world resource concerns such as erosion, low organic matter, poor water retention, lack of crop diversity, and weed pressure. Whether you're a farmer, rancher, conservation planner, or agronomist, you'll leave this webinar with specific tools and strategies to apply directly to your operation or planning efforts.
