Frontier Natural Products Co-op to study Echinacea cultivation

Through a grant from the Organic Farming Research Foundation, Frontier Organic Research Farm will investigate whether Echinacea grown in plots with native prairie medicinals and grasses is more resistant to aster yellows disease than Echinacea grown in monoculture. The farmers also will assess whether inter-planting improves productivity, weed control, and beneficial insect counts. Frontier Press Release, May 30, 2000
