Mucuna Bracteata cover crop planted at about 2 years old in immature oil palm plantation, overgrown due to delayed maintenance works, palm base circle-weeding
What a shame, such a good idea to plant mucuna as cover crop.
Maybe they could have crushed the mucuna with a roller, as Brasilian farmers crush their green manure before direct seedling: they crush it withouc cutting it so they don't resprout!
All this leaves full of nitrogene would make a marvelous Soil organic matter!
