Author(s): Craig Cogger, Dyvon Havens, Steve Fransen, John Luna, Wilbur Anderson, Horticulturist, and Shiou Kuo
Cover crops provide many benefits in gardens and agriculture, including protecting the soil from runoff and erosion, recycling and supplying nutrients, replacing soil organic matter, and suppressing weeds. Your choice of a cover crop will depend on which benefits are most important to you. This bulletin describes the benefits of cover crops, different types of cover crops and their suitability for different situations, and how to grow and manage cover crops in your garden.
