yes mint is a cover crop!
Where paddy (rice) is grown, it is unlikely that it would be used as a cover crop due to the expense of production. A cover crop is a type of plant grown to suppress weeds, help build, improve, and protect soil, and control diseases and pests. Cover crops are generally destroyed before they can reach maturity in preparation for planting the actual cash crop.

Such an idiot. Its a shame that u don't know that
No Till Farming, crop rotation, cover crop planting
A cover crop is planted on a field during the off-season to reduce erosion. Cover crops help protect soil from the impact of wind and rain, improve soil structure, and can also add nutrients back into the soil when they are eventually incorporated.
A crop is the harvest of the produce of some plant. Crops cover any natural food substance which is not an animal product. Crop farming is the way of life of people who farm in this manner as their source of income.
Rye clearing refers to a method of land preparation for agriculture where rye cover crops are grown and then cleared to make way for the main crop. The rye cover crop helps to suppress weeds, improve soil health, and reduce erosion, providing a good foundation for the main crop to thrive.
Any annual, biennial, or perennial plant grown as a monoculture (one crop type grown together) or polyculture (multiple crop types grown together), to improve any number of conditions associated with sustainable agriculture. Cover crops are fundamental, sustainable tools used to manage soil fertility, soil quality, water, weeds (unwanted plants that limit crop production potential), pests (unwanted animals, usually insects, that limit crop production potential), diseases, and diversity and wildlife, in agroecosystems.
Not directly. But many farmers interseed (plant amongst) a hay crop along with a grass crop like wheat or oats. The grass cover crop helps protect the hay crop while it is very young and prone to damage. When the grass crop is mature enough, the farmer harvests it and leaves the hay crop to grow on its own.
A mint plant typically grows to be about 1-2 feet tall, but can spread out and cover a larger area if not contained.
The main purpose of a cover crop is to improve soil health and fertility by preventing erosion, suppressing weeds, and adding organic matter to the soil. Cover crops also help to increase biodiversity, reduce nutrient leaching, and enhance water retention in the soil.
It is referred to as postally used. Some collectors prefer used versions to mint ones.
