I nterseeding legumes and grasses in wide-row corn 
1s @ promising new practice for farmers in the Corn 
Belt. The corn serves as a nurse crop for establishing 
green manure and meadow crops. Traditionally, cereal 
grains have served this purpose. 
Success with this practice, however, can be assured 
only when there 1s adequate soil moisture. Otherwise, 
results may be disappointing.
