Deep roots punch through plow pans and compacted layers.

COMPACTION RELIEF

Leaves open channels in the profile after decomposition.

NUTRIENT CYCLING

Pulls nutrients from depth and releases them near the surface.

BLEND COMPONENT

A standout in multi-species cover crop mixes.

FAST GROWTH

WEED SUPPRESSION

Broad canopy shades out fall weed flushes.
