Integrated inputs

Reduce inputs by replacing a verified function

Track nutrient, herbicide or nematicide changes only when the cover-crop system reliably performs the function being reduced.

01

Name the input and its job

A fertilizer credit, fewer herbicide passes and a changed nematicide program are distinct claims with distinct evidence.

02

Protect the crop during transition

Use monitoring thresholds, side-by-side comparisons and a rescue plan.

  • Record baseline rate and cost.
  • Define the cover-crop mechanism.
  • Measure the target outcome.
  • Record crop yield and quality.
03

Report net change

Include any additional seed, planting, termination, fuel or labor needed to produce the result.
