Cover crops usually are grown to prevent soil loss from wind and water erosion. Use fast-growing cover crops, such as winter wheat or annual rye, on fall-spaded gardens. A second, and probably more important reason home gardeners should use cover crops is to improve soil structure and increase organic matter.
Does bimonthly mean twice a month? No! bi-monthly means every two months, like bi-weekly means every two weeks. semi-monthly means twice a month. Think of mortgage payments or payroll, bi-weekly payroll meaâ¦ns one receives payroll every second week (i.e. every second Friday). Semi-monthly payroll means twice a month (typically the 1st and 15th of the month).
And it is an issue we suspect many employers had not noticed or considered. With 52 weeks in a year, there normally are 26 bi-weekly pay periods in a calendar year. In 2015, however, there will be 27 for many employers. This oddity occurs every 11 years. In short, it happens because 26 bi-weekly paychecks only cover 364 days in a year, not 365 (or 366 in Leap Years).
