"In 2016 Hedrick won the dryland division in the 2016 North Carolina Corn Yield Contest with 318.5 bushels per acre.

He says he spends $20 to $45 per acre on his cover crops.

That's the punch line: He is a soil-health farmer using multi-species cover crops and limited inputs. He said the more he goes down the soil health path, the more he's able to cut inputs...."
