CCI is proud to introduce the Farm Adoption Program, a pioneering initiative aimed at revolutionizing the way farmers interact with new crops. This comprehensive, two-year program is designed to provide invaluable resources and benefits to participating farmers, offering a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of agricultural innovation.
Participants in the program will seed CoverCress® in a low-risk, supportive environment, which is essential for mastering its cultivation and integrating it into existing farming routines.
The program requires no new land, additional equipment, or upfront costs, fitting seamlessly into standard corn and soybean rotation schedules without extra field passes, ensuring an efficient and straightforward adoption process.
Farmers can explore the potential of CoverCress® on their own farms without any grain contract obligations, allowing for a thorough and unhindered evaluation over two years.
The program offers a platform for farmers to gain confidence and develop expertise in incorporating CoverCress® into their crop rotation, while also reaping the benefits of a fall cover crop on up to 100 acres each year.
Participants receive complimentary CoverCress® seed, with an implied value of up to $2,500 or $25 per acre annually. This not only reduces initial investment but also enhances the overall value of joining the program.
By participating in the Farm Adoption Program, farmers may qualify for various carbon programs. To explore these opportunities, contact the appropriate representatives of the various carbon and cover crop programs in your area.
"We're excited about the chance to add a third cash crop into our rotation — it's not just great for incremental revenue, but it helps keep our soil healthy and strong with living plants and roots all winter long."
CCI is now accepting applications for the Farm Adoption Program through July 15th, 2024, from farmers within our designated territory, as illustrated below.
Take this opportunity to be part of an agricultural evolution. With the Farm Adoption Program, discover how CoverCress® can transform your farming practice, both economically and sustainably. Embrace the future of farming with CCI.
