Maximum-Yield Two Year Silage Ley

Optimum balance between the highest quality and yield for silage. Maximum-Yield produces the all important first cut, usually between the second and third week of May when grasses will have high D-values and soluble carbohydrate content, ensuring good silage fermentation. This results in a major potential saving in silage additive, improving palatability and profitability of winter milk production.

Ryegrass Over-Seeding Longer Term 4-5 Years

A flexible mixture for grazing or cutting fields which require longer term improvement. The grasses will provide growth from spring through the summer.

Ryegrass Over-Seeding Longer Term 4-5 Years 70% ORGANIC

A flexible mixture for grazing or cutting fields which require longer term improvement. The grasses will provide growth from spring through the summer.

Maximum D-Value Four-Five Year Silage Ley

Maximum feed value can only be obtained from well made, high D-value silage. This ley will provide optimum D-value and yield during the third week of May. Yields are boosted by utilising hybrid ryegrass. This quality ley will also provide good summer and late season grazing.

Quick Bulk Westerwolds - Intensive One Year Ley

A very fast growing ley which can be sown in the spring or autumn and is primarily grown to produce silage. However, it can be grazed and the crop can provide 'early bite' when sown in the autumn. Spring sowings on fertile soils with adequate moisture perform well but expectations should be lowered on drought-prone land.

Hybrid Silage Ley - Three-Four Year Ley

Early growth, high yields and good persistence make hybrid ryegrasses worth considering when the ley is expected to remain down for more than two years. Utilising excellent hybrid varieties, this ley is comparable, in terms of output, with Italian ryegrass leys. It should also be noted that the grazing potential of this ley is superior.

Ryegrass Over-Seeding Short Term 2-3 Years

Ideal for the short term improvement of silage leys. The mixture is very competitive and provides good early spring growth. First cut is usually taken between the second and third weeks of May.

Long Lasting Upland Dual Purpose Mix

This mix is very long lasting and will tolerate harsh upland conditions. It is very palatable and is best when rotationally grazed to allow a period of recovery and regrowth. It can also be cut for silage or hay with the best quality forage coming from swards which are cut before heading.

Traditional Hay Maker - Long Term Hay Ley

This traditional hay mix is very long lasting, although slower to establish than a straight ryegrass ley, it will go on to provide good quality, bulky hay crops with low disease levels for many years. Once cut it can be used for aftermath grazing. Expect a high Timothy content and coarse hay sample. Speak to an adviser if you require a softer, green meadow hay type sample
