10. Vetch
We are growing the vetch with the specific aim of producing seeds and it is sown with oat supporting plants. The good market situation and the need for legumes, as well the simple technology puts the vetch in advantageous situation against other azotobacters. It likes the dry weather; its water requirement develops only by shooting. The vetch doesn’t like the cold, wet weather; it throws its flowers, it doesn’t grow tall and it blows over; it goes bad and the seeds mould, the germination will be low. The greatest danger of cultivation is that it blows over before harvest – it is almost certain - and it gets wet, then a large proportion of the seeds shatter. Our average crop yields alternated between 0.5-1.8 t/ha. The vetch is our beloved plant, despite the difficulties.

11. Soya
In our economy the growing of soya became traditional because of the suiting of legumes in the crop rotation. There is a need for the sowing of legumes in a certain part of the field. The ecological growing of soya is a very difficult task; soya is a plant that helps the growth of weeds, its weed control brings the organic grower to an almost unsolvable task. There are special technologies, but those aren’t always available on time, the hoeing is almost an unaccomplishable task in a large-scale production because of the lack of responsible man-power. Furthermore, the soya requires the warm, humid microclimate, in our area is realized from this only the heat, that’s why soya beans usually don’t grow. For the past years our average crop yields has alternated between 0-1.5 t/ha. For the time being, we don’t plan its sowing.

12. Red clover
The red clover is a plant that we grow specifically with the aim of producing seeds. However, we regularly sell the first increment as fodder for a dairy-farming in the area. It has also an important role in maintaining legumes in the crop rotation. As permanent crop, kept for 2-3 years, it has an important role in collecting nitrogen and when it’s cracked, it’s a good green crop for spelt.
