Choosing cover crops with AI – made simple
The question came right after harvest: Which cover crop fits my field in Merbitz? Instead of spending hours searching through articles, trials, and tables, we simply asked Alora.
The special part: Alora doesn’t just look at averages, but considers field-specific data – from soil type to the planned follow-up crop.

How Alora prepares the decision
Alora combines all available information and turns it into a well-founded recommendation:
- site data such as soil type, slope, and water availability
- current weather trends and soil temperature
- previous main crop and planned follow-up crop
- crop rotation rules, humus build-up, and weed pressure
- if available: soil analysis and Nmin values
The result is not a generic suggestion, but a reasoned recommendation on which cover crop mixture makes sense – including alternatives.


Your benefits
✔ Save time: Instead of working through endless sources, you get a solid answer within seconds.
✔ Practical relevance: Recommendations are not theoretical but tailored directly to your field data.
✔ Sustainability: Suitable cover crops improve soil structure, foster humus build-up, and make your crop rotation more resilient.
Conclusion
With Alora, choosing cover crops becomes a manageable part of your crop rotation – fast, reliable, and field-specific.
This not only saves time but also strengthens your soil and yield in the long term.
