Figure 1 in Chavez-Rico et al. (2026): "Cumulative CO2 emissions from the treatments with differently pretreated organic amendments (OAs) during a one-year soil column incubation experiment in the dark at 22 ± 0.5 °C during the day and 14 ± 0.5 °C at night. CK = control with no OA addition; CP = addition of composted OA; DG = addition of the solid fraction of OA digestate; FM = addition of fermented OA; MX = addition of the 1:1 mixture of composted and fermented OAs; UO = addition of unpretreated OA (65% meadow hay and 35% dog food). Error bars are standard errors of the means (n = 4)."

November and December are ideal months for soil testing.
Remember for Ireland:
- Sample to a depth of 10cm
- Take 20+ cores per sample
- Cover 2–4ha per sample area
- Walk in a W-pattern and avoid poached spots

So you've grown your first cover crop in a raised bed. What next? I see this question a lot. It's easy! Just dig them up like weeds and gently turn them back into the soil. #covercrops #raisedbeds #gardening #permaculture #soilfertility
