Abstract
- The article discusses the technique of undersowing, which is a method used in various farming practices to maximize crop production and profits. Undersowing involves planting one crop into an established crop, and it can be done in intercropping situations or when inserting a green manure or cover crop into a rotation. Undersowing not only maximizes space but also improves weed control, decreases soil erosion, and increases water infiltration. The article also explores how undersowing can be applied in vegetable gardening and offers various field crop options for undersowing. Additionally, it discusses the concept of living mulches and provides management tips for successful undersowing. [Extracted from the article]
