We are also connected to the land and soil. Soil Health is defined as the continued capacity of soil to function as a vital living ecosystem that sustains plants, animals, and humans . Soil health affects water quality and air quality. Good soil health improves the productivity of your land, making it possible to raise more food or energy. It’s all connected!

It's a good idea to have in mind what you are planning for next year when you consider the options available for prevent plant crops and cover crops. If you have cattle (or have friends and neighbors with cattle) there are warm season grasses that can still produce at least one hay crop. We have a variety of millets available for different situations along with sorghum sudangrass hybrid, Piper sudangrass, and cover crop mixes.

One of the steps to improving soil health on your farm is to understand C: N ratios and how you can alter that ratio to make a positive impact on your soils nutrient cycling abilities.

The idea behind planting corn in 60” rows is to take advantage of more sunlight from wider row spacing to give the plants energy they need to grow.

We’ve put together a list of the different millets we carry at Pulse USA to help you determine which one is right for you & your situation.

Using a cover crop blend of species that will address your specific goals will also add crop diversity, add soil nutrients, break up compaction, use extra water and provide better weed control.
