Spudman July/August 2023 - 19

A field of daikon radish near O'Leary, Prince Edward Island (left), was planted as a fall cover crop following forage termination and
tillage in the year before potato. A field was planted with daikon radish alone (right) and also with daikon radish mixed with oats near
O'Leary, PEI in October 2019. Photos by Ryan Barrett.
However, one of the most effective
measures in combating erosion has
been the increasing adoption of fall
cover crops.
Under the Living Labs Atlantic
initiative, funded by Agriculture &
Agri-Food Canada, two projects were
conducted by the Prince Edward Island
Potato Board to explore the use of fallseeded
cover crops in potato rotations.
The first project (BMP1) focused on
cover crops planted after tillage in the
year preceding potato planting.
Traditionally, forage fields have been
plowed in late fall, leaving the soil bare
over winter. To evaluate the benefits
of earlier tillage and cover cropping,
field-scale trials were conducted
from 2019 to 2022. The choice of
cover crop species varied, including
spring cereal crops like barley, oats,
and wheat, as well as brassica crops
like oilseed radish, daikon radish and
brown mustard.
