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.

What a load of rubbish

So can I say that all this other stuff, including weeds and volunteers, just came up on their own with the oats, vetch and radish. Must have come from when I let a cover go to seed ten years ago!
