Happy #WorldSoilDay 🌱
95% of our food comes from soil. Healthy soils are the basis for healthy and nutritious food.
At LEGUMINOSE, we aim to improve soil health through legume-cereal intercropping. 🌾🌱
Let's sow the seeds of change!

🌾 The Three Sisters – maize, beans & squash – work together to naturally repel pests: Research shows they amplify each other's defenses.
In our on-farm living labs, we are exploring optimal crop combos for different climates and soils.
