Mike Powley has introduced multi-species cover crops on the farm, including mustards, radishes, phacelia, sunflowers, rye, buckwheat, and other diverse mixes - inspired by the principles of Gabe Brown.
The cover crop, drilled as a catch crop on 7th September, is designed to produce a large biomass to feed the soil and support soil biology over the winter. Following his winter barley, Mike usually plants in late July or early August, aiming to keep living roots in the ground as much as possible.
Once established, the crop produces 40–50 tonnes per hectare of fresh matter, which is rolled down with a Uni drill before beans are sown into it. This approach follows Gabe Brown’s core principles: maintaining soil armour, minimising tillage, and keeping roots growing year-round - all key for building carbon, enhancing soil biology, and improving long-term soil health.
