Agriculture.com
Cover crops work. That's the message from the results of a recent study. Last year's drought gutted corn and soybean yields. But that yield hammer was much lighter on those crop acres that were preceded by a cover crop. The study, conducted by the USDA North Central Region Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) program and Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC), sought opinions from more than 750 farmers in the Corn Belt on cover crops, how widely they're adopted, their payback and challenges.

NPR
America's hugely productive food system is one of its success stories. The nation will export a projected $139.5 billion in agricultural products this fiscal year alone. It's an industry that supports "more than 1 million jobs," according to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. But all that productivity has taken a toll on the environment, especially rivers and lakes: Agriculture is the nation's leading cause of impaired water quality, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

A program to assure international customers that U.S. growers are operating in a sustainable manner has been announced by the United Soybean Board. The U.S. Soybean Sustainability Protocol provides buyers with a certification of the sustainable practices of those in the soybean production industry. In essence, the protocol puts onto paper practices farmers already have been using.

The Strategic Sourceror
As the global population continues to grow, there will be a greater need for sustainable sourcing in the food industry. Agriculture will need to generate more food while using less resources, and a policy known as sustainable intensification could help farmers produce more crops on the same lands, according to a study from Science journal's Policy Forum.

Western Farm Press
California cotton growers and water-starved fields could benefit from a conservation tillage practice not typical to this Golden State cash crop, although the practice is widely implemented and accepted elsewhere in the United States. It is not just water savings which makes no-till conservation tillage methods attractive. Farmers can also realize cost saving benefits in labor and equipment.

AgriNews
Dale Hemann doesn't consider himself to be an over the top conservation nut, but he hates to see soil wash away. Six months into his first term as Mitchell (Iowa) Soil and Water Conservation District commissioner, Hemann said while that much rain is going to cause erosion no matter what a farmer does, land with conservation practices did a far better job of holding the soil. Hemann used mostly strip-till and no-till on his farm.

Capital Press
No-till sugar beets can be grown in Idaho without sacrificing yields, increasing fertilizer rates or compromising weed control, according to results of an ongoing experiment at the University of Idaho's Kimberly Research & Extension Center. Weed scientist Don Morishita is in his third season of the trials, comparing conventional planting with strip-till and no-till systems.

AgriNews
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service offers practices to help Indiana farmers create pollinator habitat, harnessing their value to production. "Bees and other pollinators help keep the whole environment healthy, and that's why thousands of producers have worked to attract them to their land," said NRCS State Conservationist Jane Hardisty. "When you create habitat for pollinators, you also provide habitat for other wildlife, reduce soil erosion and improve water quality."

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reported 10 percent of Australian land mass had been revegetated between 2011 and 2012. Revegetation is used where erosion is occurring to preserve the soil structure.
