Activity 4 - Cover Crops and 4R Strategies to Mitigate GHG Emissions
Activity Lead: Craig Drury, AAFC Harrow Research & Development Centre
Activity Description: This activity will examine cover crop and 4R nitrogen management strategies (i.e., Right Source, Right Rate, Right Time, and Right Place) in corn production to improve nitrogen uptake, carbon sequestration and GHG emissions. The focus will be on the use of cover crops and fertilizer additives that can slow or prevent the release of GHG.
