Summary in the original language of the document
In this video, you will learn about the benefits of transfer mulch in organic farming, and more concretely about clover and alfalfa as transfer mulch for maize and potatoes, protecting soils from erosion and evaporation with transfer mulch and nutrient supply on livestock-free organic farms with cut & carry.
Summary translation
In diesem Video erfahren Sie mehr über die Vorteile von Transfermulch im ökologischen Landbau, konkret über Klee und Luzerne als Transfermulch für Mais und Kartoffeln, den Schutz der Böden vor Erosion und Verdunstung mit Transfermulch und die Nährstoffversorgung auf viehlosen ökologischen Betrieben mit Cut & Carry.

Teaser: | Why transfer mulch is worthwhile in organic farming. |
What problem does the tool address?: | Transfer mulch (i.e. clippings from the farms donor areas) is very interesting for organic farming as it can have various benefits on-farm in terms of nutrient management and soil protection. |
What solution does the tool offer?: | This tool offers a summary of some practical results from the research project "VORAN" which stands for "Improving ecological crop rotations with transfer mulch for regenerative, adaptive nutrient management" which investigated how transfer mulch can affect the nutrient supply on recipient areas of soil and plants, erosion protection, soil water retention and the regulation of pests and weeds. |
