Description
Appin Leafy Turnip is a great quick winter feed option that can maximise the value & return from your pasture system. Tops can be grazed initially, then re-growth of leaf and bulb will occur after a short spell. Sow from September to December and February to April.
- Tops and bulbs are highly palatable for sheep and cattle
- Excellent option for quick winter feed
- Re-grazing in 30 days is possible if initial grazing is managed well
Appin Leafy Turnip is highly compatible with annual and Italian ryegrass mixes such as Megabite & Winterbite pasture blends
