TGS BIOM – Biomass accumulation / soil enrichment TGS BIOM 2

Biomass accumulation / soil enrichment (without leguminous)

Mixture TGS BIOM 2 Biomass accumulation / soil enrichment (without leguminous)

  • A mixture of fast-growing plants without legumes, which produces a lot of biomass
  • The soil is well covered, weeds are shaded up by fast-growing plants, and the roots of deep-rooted plants mow through the soil surface and subsoil
  • When tillage radishes die and decompose, deep cavities remain in the soil, which allows more moisture, air, warm and microorganisms to enter the soil
  • These radishes "collect" a large amount of nitrogen from the soil in the autumn, which will be realised when they decompose
  • Cruciferous plants contribute to soil biofumigation
  • Phacelia releases heavily available phosphorus
