The study was initiated in 2016 with the planting of cover crops and then a 2017 cotton crop near Halfway, TX and Lamesa, TX.  The purpose of the study was to compare the effects of wheat and rye cover crops at different seeding rates and termination dates on cover crop biomass, water content, and cotton yield.
