Una delle caratteristiche principali del suolo finlandese e’ il basso contenuto di calcio, per cui in autunno o in primavera gli agricoltori devono spargere sui campi del Cloruro di calcio per integrare.
La semina dei cereali poi puo’ essere fatta in autunno (prima che la terra geli) o la prossima primavera (quando il gelo si sara’ sciolto). Nel frattempo la terra riposa.
A livello pratico, la scarsita’ di contenuto di calcio nel terreno si traduce nella quasi totale assenza di calcare nell’acqua del rubinetto – e questo e’ un grosso vantaggio.
Autumn Works.
An important characteristic of the Finnish soil is the low content of calcium. Farmers therefore must spread Calcium chloride onto the fields in autumn or in spring.
They will then sow wheat or other cereals in autumn (before the land gets frozen) or in spring (after thaw). In the meantime fields will rest.
There is a practical advantage in low-calcium soil: tap water is very low in limestone.

Lovely fall colors, Interesting about the lack of calcium in your local soil. We must have a lot here… our water is what they call very “hard”, with lots of calcium.
