Catch crops
TABEA Buckwheat
Advantages
Late flowering variety for additional nutrient uptake
Name addition
Buckwheat
- Tartary buckwheat flowers much later than True buckwheat and contains bitter substances
- TABEA has a very low flowering tendency and thus a low risk of seeding
- Absorbs phosphorus and makes it available to the following crop
- Very fast youth development and soil cover with excellent weed suppression - ideal partner in catch crop mixtures
- Freezes very reliably at just a few degrees below zero
- Bitter substances protect against browsing by game when young
- Tartary buckwheat has a lower TKG (12 - 15 g) than True buckwheat

Cultivation recommendations
Recommended sowing rate
40-60 kg/ha
Sowing depth
3 cm
Sowing period
Early June until mid-August as a cover crop
Fertilization
Buckwheat has a good mineral assimilation capacity. Nitrogen mainly promotes leaf growth, which prolongs flowering, delays ripening and promotes storage fruit. Nitrogen fertilisation should be done in one application at sowing time with a maximum of 40 kg N/ha.
Crop protection
Usually there is no plant protection required
Sowing method
Drill seed recommended
