Access to our multi-species planter

  • Multi-species cropping directly into pastures or cane trash is a fantastic tool to promote ground cover, water retention, biodiversity, and biological activity, without unnecessary tillage. Funded in collaboration with Sustainable Table and the Queensland Government Department of Agriculture and Fisheries, this specialised planter is available to CQSHS members at an affordable fee per hectare basis.

Our comprehensive guide to cover cropping 

  • Based on 10 years experience of Nuffield Scholar and CQSHS founding member, Simon Mattsson, this multi-species cover cropping guide provides valuable insights into species selection, plant timing, pre-planting prep, post-planting management, different planting methods, and the most likely outcomes from some of the more common species’ mixes.
