If a game cover ar pollinator mix is planted in Spring and left for 8 months what is its best use for EfA and greening.
Some has been ploughed and cultivated pre sowing. It will receive no PPP's.
Answers are much appreciated.

Come on , someone must have a 3rd party shot putting cover on their farm . 3 way mixes used to work well with Els schemes. With BPS they seem to be no great use.
 
We planted 4.5 Ha of winter bird food for ELS scheme (AB9), drilled with every other coulter blocked off, doubles up as cover for holding pheasants, not sure of the mix but can look it up if this helps.
