| Abstract/Description: | Soil-improving crops increase the humus of the soil, which in turn increases the water-holding capacity of the soil, often an important factor in the growth of a crop. This document stresses this importance and suggests a number of crops which when plowed under, will enrich the productive qualities. | |
