Description
Fast winter feed with soil and system benefits built in
The Winter Multi Species Blend is designed to deliver rapid winter and early spring feed, while also improving soil function and setting paddocks up for the next phase of the rotation.
By combining species with different growth habits and root depths, this blend uses plant symbiosis to perform across a wide range of environments, paddock variations and rainfall conditions, giving farmers a flexible, practical system that adapts rather than relying on one species to do all the work.
By combining fast-establishing cereals and ryegrass with legumes and deep-rooted brassicas, this blend provides early bulk, quality grazing and nitrogen contribution, making it a strong option for winter feed gaps and pasture cropping programs.
Why choose a winter multi species blend?
- Rapid establishment and early bulk feed
- Improved winter groundcover and weed suppression
- Nitrogen input from legumes
- Deep rooting to assist compaction and nutrient cycling
- Balanced forage (energy, protein and fibre)
- Sets paddocks up for spring or the next crop phase
