Corn Interseeding Mix

Adding diversity in a corn and soybean rotation is often difficult due to the short season left after harvest. To help with this, many producers are considering interseeding their corn at V3-V5 stage. At this stage, the corn gets the head start it needs but still allows light to bring up the cover crop before the canopy closes. This corn interseeding blend introduces all four functional groups - legumes, grasses, brassicas, and broadleaves - to add diversity to the soil. With more root exudates, beneficial insect attraction, and nutrient cycling, this blend helps build soil alongside the corn. Plus, after corn harvest, the already established species can continue to grow with the newfound sunlight. The green material also boosts nutritional values for grazing stalks.  The Corn Interseeding Mix is an excellent option for corn producers looking to add diversity in their rotation while still producing a corn crop.

• add diversity
