Green Wing B2C

This mixture is designed for aerial seeding into standing soybeans at leaf yellowing, prior to a corn crop the following year. Green Wing B2C works best with sprinkler irrigation or timely rainfall.

Comprised of species with a low seeding rate
Small seeds that germinate from the soil surface
Does not produce protruding roots (like radish) that may interfere with soybean harvest if harvest is delayed
Mixture is composed of legumes and brassicas to produce and then rapidly release nitrogen to a following corn crop

Benefits of Cover Crops

Nitrogen Fixing: To generate nitrogen credits beneficial for the next primary crop.
Nutrient Scavenging: To consume and temporarily sequester (tie-up) nitrogen or to reclaim unreachable reservoirs of nutrients.
Mulching and Organic Matter: To improve soil health (moisture retention and water holding capacity) as well as to reduce soil erosion.
Soil conditioning: To reduce soil compaction, fracture hard-pan, and generally improve soil structure.
Soil Pest Management: To suppress nematodes and disrupt pest cycles.
Upland Birds: Creates brood rearing cover when planted in the spring through late summer.
