Recently, Harborview Farms has become apart of a High-Yield Conservation Project (HYCP), which is funded by the Howard G. Buffett Foundation. The project was created to help farmers maximize high-yield results by matching conservation-minded farmers with a team of expert advisers. HYCP will track Harborview's cover crops as well as help implement multiple cover crop trials throughout the year. As part of the project, we collaborated with Dr. Ray Weil of the University of Maryland to perform a study on the benefits of deep-rooted nitrogen cover crops. In this edition of their journal, Trey Hill and Harborview Farms were featured for their efforts in water quality conservation.
