Database for spring, summer and fall-planted cover crop performance across the state of Nebraska

This repository contains raw datasets from multi-year cover crop variety
trials conducted across Nebraska to evaluate biomass production, plant
height, nutrient content, and soil health parameters. Trials were
established in multiple ecoregions, including UNL research stations and
private farms, to assess cover crop performance under diverse conditions.
The data includes cover crop biomass, soil properties, root measurements,
and vegetative indices, along with metadata on trial locations and
management practices. This repository supports researchers, agronomists,
and stakeholders in optimizing cover crop management and soil health. The
structured datasets facilitate reproducibility and contribute to
developing Nebraska-specific cover crop growth models and management
recommendations.
