Winter camelina is an emerging cover crop option for Wisconsin farmers. As a brassica with winter hardiness similar to cereal rye, winter camelina offers exciting potential for those looking to diversify their cover cropping systems—with added opportunities for cash cropping.
Join us for a Camelina Conversation on March 19 to learn more about how winter camelina can fit into Wisconsin cropping systems. The event will feature university research, farmer experiences, and industry perspectives.
