Catch and cover crops

Chlorofiltre Fertile is a cover crop that improves soil fertility
This mixture is composed of four species : black oat, purple vetech, phacelia and berseem clover.

Fonctionnal benefits

  • Very good summer biomass production ;
  • Complementarity species ;
  • High nutrient supply to the benefit of the next crop.

What are the benefits of Chlorofiltre Fertile cover crop ?

Very good summer biomass production.
Cérience has selected two legumes that have excellent behavior, namely the purple vetch TITANE and the berseem
clover TABOR. This berseem clover is a single-cut variety that produces more biomass than a multi-cut variety.
The black oat OCEANE is known for its high biomass production and late heading behaviour.

Complementarity species
This mixture is composed of three distinct species, namely legumes with purple vetch TITANE and berseem clover
TABOR, and the black oat OCEANE as well as phacelia.

High nutrient supply to the benefit of the next crop
Chloroltre FERTILE supplies nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium to the soil.
It improves soil fertility, reduces erosion, and support yield increase of the next crop.
The C/N ratio of the cover crop biomass is low, thanks to legumes and the lateness of the OCEANE black oat.
