OSU researchers seeking environmental solutions through cover cropping
Thu, Apr 24, 2025
OSU researchers are studying using legume cover crops in the summer to fix nitrogen in the soil to minimize the amount of fertilizer producers need to put down for planting wheat in the fall. They are using chambers to capture and measure carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide emissions in wheat fields.
