Broadcast sowing: a simple, quick and cost-effective technique!
-
Broadcast sowing before harvest is popular due to its remarkable operational efficiency. It is extremely simple: all you need is a fertilizer spreader to establish the cover crop, without the need for any specific equipment or tools. This ease of use is accompanied by considerable time savings: in a single pass, the cover crop is sown and the plot is ready as soon as the harvest is complete, thus freeing up valuable time during the busy harvest season.
The technique is also highly cost-effective, as the cover crops operation amounts to a single pass with the fertiliser spreader. Imagine the savings in time, fuel and labour!
From an agronomic perspective too, broadcast sowing is highly beneficial! The simplicity of the implementation process drastically reduces the number of passes over the plot, thereby limiting soil compaction. Finally, without tillage, the soil structure is preserved and provides ideal conditions for cover crop establishment. By combining simplicity, speed, cost control and agronomic benefits, broadcast sowing before harvest is an effective solution for securing the successful establishment of your summer cover crops!
