COVER CROP
The term cover crop refers to an intercrop which primarily aims to protect the soil against erosion, reduce weed development and remove any coarse crop remnants.
When plowed into the ground they are referred to as green manure, enriching the soil with nitrogen and organic matter. Cover crops are an effective plant crop that require minimum tillage which helps growers reduce chemical fertilizer use and improve soil structure. After researching and testing species and mixtures with several agricultural companies embracing a new soil management method, Co.Pro.Sem.El.
