Cover Crop

What's this

The cover crops make it possible to intercept solar radiation and capture the nutrients, improving the efficiency of the entire plant-soil ecosystem. An efficient ecosystem requires fewer inputs to produce, allowing for a reduction in water input and enriching the soil with organic matter.

The substantial benefits brought by its use are listed below:
• improvement of the physical and biological quality of the soil

• reduces soil erosion
• acts on the permeability of the soil, determining a speed of water infiltration
• brings an increase in organic matter
• increase in nitrogen and nutrients

 

Contains

• BRASSICA JUNCEA
variety selected for the high content of bioactive molecules which confer high resistance capacity to fungal pathogens and soil parasites.

• VICIA SATIVA
produces biomass and releases nitrogen in large quantities, contributes to the fight against weeds.
• SECALE CEREALE L.
makes an important contribution to the reduction of nitrate leaching. Gives a great weed containment capacity.
• ALPHA ALPHA
fixes atmospheric nitrogen by storing it.
• LUPINUS ANGUSTIFOLIUS L.
the symbiotic bacteria settled in its roots absorb atmospheric nitrogen making it available in the soil
• TANACITOFILA PHACELIA
in addition to releasing large quantities of nitrogen into the ground, it also performs an important containment action on weeds, releasing particular chemical substances that it produces itself.
• SINAPSIS ALBA L.
guarantees an excellent biomass production.
• VICCIA FABA L.
it brings abundant biomass to the soil which, combined with its nitrogen-fixing capacity, improves the nutritional and structural qualities of the soil.
• TRIFOLIUIM PRATENSE
thanks to its nitrogen-fixing capacity, it allows the enrichment of this element in the soil, improving the yield of the associated crop.

How does it work

Sow when the plant in cultivation reaches 15/20 cm in height.

Dosage

Format of 0.1 kg, it is able to guarantee sowing on a volume equivalent to 50/60 liters of supersoil.
