This is Ronnie Barentine (GA Extension from Pulaski Co., GA) in a rye cover crop in Turner Co. GA. Ronnie does a nice job of articulating the benefits of the rye cover crop he also addresses some of the practical aspects of managing rye cover crops.

  • My question is, do you till in the cover-crop before or after the seeds form?

    The concern I have is the cross-contamination of the corn (naturally gluten-free), by the growing of rye as a cover crop or rotation. Our entire family has Celiac Disease. With no cure, the only treatment is life-long, strict, gluten-free diet. We must eliminate all gliadin gluten containing ingredients (wheat, barley, rye and derivatives) and eliminate the risk of cross-contact.

    Great video! Thank you.

    Give Ronnie Barentine a buzz at barentin@uga.edu or 478-783-1171 - he will be able to work through soime of these issues with you. I would suggest not tilling, but rather rolling your cover crop. If you seqarch rollomng cover crops you'll see a few examples.
