Highly effective biological green manure
Benefits:
- Safe and uncomplicated cultivation - also at late sowing dates and unfavourable conditions
- Rapid initial development with good weed suppression
- The lush growth provides a good soil shadowing and promotes the valuable tilth
- SILETINA supplies with a high dry matter yield an easily degradable organic matter for the biological activation of the soil and stabilisation of the soil structure
- Intensiv rooting protects nutrients from leaching and improves the water- and air balance of the soil
