Surface erosion control
Non-competitive mixture specific for the artificial grassing of sloped vineyards at high risk of surface water erosion. Limits water runoff and soil dragging. The presence of turf improves the in-depth translocation of phosphorus and potassium and therefore the availability of nutritional elements over time. Limits nitrogen leaching, improving the production cycle. Excellent reduction in management costs.
Agronomic advantages
• Soil stabilization
• Reduced growth of the turf
• Increase in nitrogen in the soil
• Limited competitiveness towards the vine
