Training Description:
Continuous Living Cover 101, available from Green Lands Blue Waters, is a self paced, online course for agricultural, conservation, and technical assistance professionals. This training introduces the concept, describes five basic strategies (annuals + cover crops, agroforestry, perennial grains, perennial forage and grazing, and perennial biomass) to achieve CLC, and goes over economic and environmental benefits with on-farm examples. It also covers how to talk to farmers and support them in choosing and implementing CLC strategies.
The course requires about 3 hours of time to complete, and users can take the course at their own pace and save progress to return to it later. The course is divided into six modules with short quizzes, real-life examples, and resource recommendations throughout.
