Cover Crop Species Selector Decision Support Tool

Date Created: 08/18/22

Date Last Modified: 04/22/2025

The species selector DST is used to help farmers select a cover crop that fits their goals and constraints. The user can either input specifics about their field location and cover cropping goals or explore cover crops without entering those details. The tool is mainly used to explore expert reccomendations and ratings for cover crops in the farmer's USDA Plant Hardiness Zone. This allows farmers to make educated decisions that are best suited for their specific goals and can save time as opposed to calling the extension office.

Support for this project is brought to us by Agricultural Informatics Lab, NE SARE, USDA NRCS, NECCC, and the Precision Sustainable Agriculture.

To access the live tool, visit https://covercrop-selector.org/
To see development progress, visit https://develop.covercrop-selector.org/

Tech stack

Single page application made in React.js
Ratings and zone info verified via Airtable and then ingested into a PostgreSQL database and served up using a Node.js API

Local Installation Steps

Prerequisites:

Node and NPM Download Here
Git Download Here
A code editor (we recommend vs code) Download Here

Steps:

Open a new Terminal for Mac/Linux or Command Prompt for Windows
Move to the desired folder cd /path/to/folder
Clone this repository into that folder git clone https://github.com/precision-sustainable-ag/dst-selector
From the Terminal/Command Prompt, move into the cloned directory cd dst-selector
Run npm config set '@psa:registry' https://node.bit.cloud
From the same command window, run npm install to install project dependencies. A full list of the dependencies can be found in package.json. If you are running on a windows machine delete package-lock.json prior to running the below command.
Create a file called .env in root directory (dst-selector). The file will contain the below keys. This document is in the git ignore, so it (and your API keys) won't be pushed to the repository. Ask @mikahpinegar or Adam Smith for the values of the keys

VITE_API_GOOGLE_API_KEY="<google key>"
VITE_API_OPEN_WEATHER_API_KEY="<open weather key>"
VITE_API_MAPBOX_API_KEY="<mapbox token key>"
VITE_API_AUTH0_DOMAIN="<auth0 domain>"
VITE_API_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID="<auth0 client id>"
VITE_API_AUTH0_AUDIENCE="<auth0 audience>"
VITE_API_USER_HISTORY_API_URL="<user history url>"
VITE_API_USER_HISTORY_SCHEMA="<schema>"
VITE_API_RELEASE_NOTES="<Release Notes URL>"
VITE_API_MAPBOX_TOKEN="<mabox token>"

After the dependencies have been installed and the .env file has been created, run npm start to run the code locally. If you run into any issues take a look in the Runbook for previous issues and solutions. This will compile the JSX code into Javascript and open up a new browser window with the current version of the covercrops project!

Running in docker:

Run ./start_script.sh
Run open http://localhost:3000
