Cover Crop mixture

Cover Crop Mixture for sale.

I have 750kg of the following mix which needs a good home, actually a not so good one would be okay too.

Mixture as follows:

9.00kg Phacelia
4.00kg Stubble Turnips
4.00kg Oilseed Radish
4.00kg Forage Rape
4.00kg Berseem Clover
25kg 100%

Packed in 25 kilo packs

Price: £3.50/kg delivered

It would be nice to have a minimum order of at least 4 x 25kg packs.

Any questions then please ask.

What would be a seed rate per/ha?

 

[Great In Grass]

It is formulated as a companion mix to be added to other species (off the heap/volunteers) and if used as such the seed rate is 2.5kg/ha. The seed rate may be adjusted to suit really.

Would this grow if planted into bare ground at the moment before winter wheat in the autumn and what rate would you plant it at for this?

Looking for something to sow onto bare ground here too, would this mix plough in before winter G in G..?

 

[PSQ]

If you could invoice it as 'Wild bird mix' it would tick all of my criteria and keep 'the department' happy
Does phacelia seed keep well over year?

I have another mix without the stubble turnips and forage rape that may suit you better, about £2.81/kilo?

G I g. Could you price up 45 acre of oil radish grazing rye mix to go on sand land. Aim is to sow after winter barley then graze off and strip till beet into it want a good root mass to stop it blowing. And could do with 3 acres worth to experiment on some heavy fallow now to do half a small field to see difference to just leaving it bare. Thanks
