@Pedders do you or anyone else know if the Pedders #1 Mix qualifies for EFA. It's got a cereal (oats) and a broadleaved on the list (Radish), but are these enough, you are allowed to put other things in as well.

To comply with EFA regulations you can count one cereal and one non cereal to formulate a mixture. If other species are used that are not on the list, it then doesn't count.

Cereals that may be used are: Rye, Barley and Oats.
Non Cereal: Phacelia, Vetch, Mustard & Lucerne.
