Product number: 422HN0003CM

Outstanding performance for protein content feed value.

The open nature of the cover crop allows undersown grass to thrive and provide a significant yield of dry matter to bolster the yield from the wholecrop components.

If clover is required in the subsequent grass sward, this is probably better introduced in the spring or after first cut silage.

  • 7-9 tonnes(DM)/hectare of very high protein silage in about 14 weeks
  • Allows undersown grass to thrive
  • Good standing power
  • Dedicated seed rate to enhance starch and protein
  • Good tannin levels to improve the level of bypass protein

Sow @ 65kg per acre in average conditions.
Increase seed rate if sown after mid April or seed bed conditions are difficult.
Reduce seed rate by 15% if undersowing with grass or sowing in high fertility sites.
