Description
Organic Oats
Oats can be planted in all soil types, under all conditions, from early May to late September. Cultivated as green manure, this grass has soil-improving properties. It is increasingly used as autumn green manure. It dies during winter, leaving a thin layer of yellowed oats on the soil the following spring, which is easy to incorporate. It helps reduce soil erosion and prevents the presence of weeds.

Growing tips for green manures
Green manures are crops intended to be worked into the soil to increase fertility. Growing green manures has many benefits. Among other things, it allows you to prepare new land. Grown cyclically, green manures rest, enrich, and cleanse the soil. Established in the fall, they protect the soil from erosion and leaching and preserve its structure.
