Trigonella foenum-graecum
Fenugreek is a great weed competitor as it grows faster than weeds. Using fenugreek as a green manure will assist in breaking up heavy clay soils and adds organic matter to your soil when the plant is cut back. Once cut back, it should not be dug in, but rather left on the surface as a mulch where it will break down naturally without locking up the available nitrogen in the soil.
It is drought tolerant and will germinate in cooler temperatures.
Fenugreek has a deep penetrating root system which source nutrients from the deeper soil levels, bringing them to the surface and making them available to your crops.
Can also be used as a grazing/fodder crop for cattle.
To fix nitrogen in your soil using Fenugreek, please inoculate your seeds with the Vetch and Fenugreek Inoculum Pack.
