... strong partner for rapeseed cultivation
Benefits:
- Supports the vitality of the oilseed rape, optimises nutrient dynamics and diverts pests (turnip root fly, cabbage stem flea beetle) away from the main crop
- Large amounts of atmospheric nitrogen are fixed, reducing nitrogen fertiliser requirements
- AVALON effectively suppresses weeds with broad leaf foliage
- Complete and early coverage of the soil protects the soil from erosion at all times
- Companion plants freeze safely and the remaining mulch provides frost protection for the main crop
- Growth management: targeted suppression of the main crop prevents overgrowth before winter
- The particularly small-grained field bean AVALON offers advantages in sowing technique
