Sunflower is renowned for its extensive and prolific root system and its ability to soak up residual nutrients. Sunflowers work very well in cover crop mixtures. With rapid early season establishment, additional covers under the canopy that normally don’t grow under cool conditions can begin to take advantage of warmer and favorable weather when sunflowers are growing slower. With upright growth and anchored plants in the soil, surrounding vining  plants can support their own growth by working their way up to reach sunlight thereby providing the structure they need to grow. Livestock love these young plants and the mature seed heads make a great feed source as well. Beneficial pollinators are attracted to the bright colors of sunflower heads.
