Pivots 2 and 5
Both pivots are supported by Lebensbaum.
Both Pivots 2 and 5 have shown substantial progress over the past seasons.
- Pivot 2 was planted with clover and beans last winter. These legumes have played a vital role in nitrogen fixation and enhancing soil fertility.
In the current summer season, the pivot is divided: one half is planted with sorghum, and the other with sesame. This mixed cultivation strategy aims to assess performance under varied crop requirements while continuing to build organic matter and microbial resilience. Observations already suggest increased soil fertility and noticeable improvements in soil structure and organic content.
- Pivot 5 was cultivated with beans in the last winter season. In the summer season, it has been split between hibiscus and sesame. The soil in this pivot has shown measurable improvements in terms of organic matter levels, confirming that the interventions are having the desired impact. The diversified crop selection further enhances soil microbial diversity and supports balanced nutrient cycling.
