[QUOTE="Hutchinsons Updates, post: 7022508, member: 150396"] Welcome to the Cover Crop stand. Catch and cover crops are now increasingly used for their ability to improve soil structure, add green manure and capture nutrients for the following crop. We are pleased to offer our own range of catch and cover crop mixes, specifically designed to maximise the many benefits associated with their use. These mixes have been constructed on the reliability of the individual species and their ability to deliver key agronomic advantages and improvements in soil health. Technical justification has been the driver in each selection and the key aim with each mix has been to offer as much diversity as possible, while considering cost, reliability and confidence in performance. Our over-winter cover crop mixes all use the same eight species, with ratios of each adjusted according to the situation in which they are placed. This means we can work consistently with species we have confidence in to provide the results required. Our catch crop mixes present a great opportunity for those with more restrictive rotations to gain improvements in soil health, but also an additional opportunity for those already using cover crops.
