Organic crop rotation is subject to stringent requirements, with the prime focus being on maintaining healthy soils, as they are the main capital in sustainable farming. Soil fertility is the best long-term investment and needs to be maintained and improved. As a consequence, cover crops are a must because their characteristics enhance the natural soil properties. Our TerraLife® cover crop programme offers a number of mixtures which meet the requirements for organic farming and crop rotation.
