Reed Canary Grass is similar to Phalaris aquatica but is more suitable for use in exposed northern regions as it is a much hardier plant and will tolerate a wide range of soil types.
- It not only offers nesting and cover to pheasants but also provides wild birds with nesting sites.
- The crop is purely for cover and does not provide feed so bare patches may be left unplanted or later cut out to provide areas for artificial feeding.
- As with Phalaris aquatica drilling in wide rows is necessary rather than broadcasting or the crop will become too dense.
- Annual management should be undertaken to keep the rows clear.
- Topping is beneficial if it becomes too tall, with the debris removed.
Seed Rate 6kg/ha
