Answer to Question 1

Six of the benefits of cover crops include:
1 . To protect the soil from wind and water erosion after an annual crop such as corn or soybean is harvested and before the next crop is planted
2 . To absorb excess fertilizer nutrients from the soil
3 . To enhance soil fertility for subsequent crops through the addition of atmospheric nitrogen (legume nitrogen fixation) or organic matter
4 . To reduce weed growth
5 . To provide habitat for insects and animals that consume weed seeds
6 . To control soil moisture levels. Cover crops can dry up wet soils or, if their residues are retained on the soil surface, they can conserve soil water. Depletion of soil water by cover crops can be detrimental where rainfall is limited.
