Contains enough N fixing legumes to be self sufficient requiring no fertiliser input.
Medicinal Properties
Plants with high mineral content and anthelmintic (anti-worm) properties to reduce vet and med bills and improve animal health.
Nitrogen Fixing
This item contains leguminous species, which naturally fix Nitrogen from the air into the soil.
Slow Growing
Slower to establish but require much less maintenance and management.Ref: SAINFOIN. Sainfoin is a silage or hay crop that can be grazed. It is drought-resistant, needs no nitrogen fertiliser, mitigates bloat and is a natural anthelmintic.
