Cover crops refer to any plant population established with the main purpose of protecting and enriching soil, leading to better soil health over time. Our cover crop mixtures are blended to provide the perfect balance of sequestering carbon, stimulating microbial activity, suppressing weeds, preventing erosion and scavenging for nutrients.

The benefits of using cover crop mixtures are well-known and include, among others:

  1. Cover crops increase root mass in different soil layers.
  2. Cover crops lead to better aeration in the soil, as well as improved microbial distribution.
  3. Cover crops assist in the rapid build-up of humus or organic carbon levels.
  4. Cover crops offer better protection against pests and plagues and allow for healthier soil.
  5. Cover crops promote favourable conditions for beneficial insects such as earthworms.
  6. Cover crops increase the soil’s water filtration and retention ability.

We recommend sowing at a rate of 3.5 grams per square meter.

This seed contains AG Beacon Corn, Dunnart Oats, Groundhog Radish and Common Vetch.
