Schwarzbrache gegen Erdmandelgras

We explain simply and practically how fallow farming works to control yellow nutsedge – an effective method for quickly reducing infestation pressure on heavily affected areas. • What is fallow farming and why does it help against yellow nutsedge? • How is fallow farming carried out correctly? • Tips on soil preparation and the selection of cover crops. • Goal: To reduce yellow nutsedge pressure so that all crops can be cultivated again. Note: Before implementing fallow farming in Switzerland or Liechtenstein, the project should be reported to the cantonal plant protection service, and an exemption permit under the Swiss Ecological Performance Certificate (ÖLN) should be obtained if necessary. In organic farming, an exemption permit must be obtained. Further information: https://www.bioaktuell.ch/pflanzenbau...
