Welcome

Since 2020, farmers around Wisconsin have shared cover crop and other soil health practices with us. Each colored dot on the map represents one of their fields. Click the map or graph images to explore the data.




Interested in the database generated by this project? Please email Mrill Ingram regarding our data sharing agreement. If you have already been approved as a researcher click here .


The Michael Fields Agricultural Institute's Wisconsin Cover Crop Citizen Science Project is a partnership with UW-Madison's NPM Program, The Nature Conservancy, the USDA Dairy Forage Research Center, and UW-Madison's WICST project. We are grateful to our collaborating Wisconsin farmers and to our Soil Health Alliance for Research and Engagement (SHARE) project partners.
