Cover Crop Competition

25 Mar

We launched our inaugural Cover Crop Competition in Jersey in 2024, aiming to promote sustainable farming practices and biodiversity on the island. Each year we continue to expand the impact we have with this project, including local schools, educating locals on the benefits of cover crops and integrating with community events. . The competition features five categories: Best Bird Cover Crop, Best Visual Cover Crop, Best Pollinator Cover Crop, Best Soil Health Cover Crop and Overall Winner. This initiative has had a significant impact on the community, encouraging local farmers to adopt innovative techniques that enhance biodiversity, improve soil health, and support vital ecosystems. By engaging various local organisations and experts in the judging process, the competition has fostered collaboration and knowledge-sharing within Jersey's agricultural community, setting a new standard for sustainable farming practices on the island.
