plow under

Green crops, to plow under, are in many places largely raised, and are always beneficial.

It makes a good growth during the fall and early winter and is in blossom and ready to cut or plow under in April or May.

The cotton is grown for market, the corn partly to sell, partly to feed, the oats to feed and the cowpeas to plow under.

In the spring plow it under, and you plow under all the nitrogen that the plants had collected the previous year.

You don't get quite the same benefit from the green manure when you pasture as when you plow under.
