Terminated cereal rye


Terminated cereal rye. A farmer in Crawford County, Iowa, USA, protects his sloping cropland with a conservation system of terraces, no-till and cover crops to reduce erosion. In spring 2013, many local farmers lost their crop after heavy rains, but Brodersen's soybeans survived thanks to his conservation efforts.
