Sowing Information:
Sowing date can influence the Pea contribution in the Cereal Mix. August Sowing in cooler conditions will favour Cereal Growth, with September Sowings tending to allow the Peas to be more competitive. For unsurpassed Silage Quality and Quantity, Soil pH needs to be above 5.8. Root nodulation is maximised at a higher pH resulting in a Healthier Plant with a greater potential for Nitrogen Fixation. Sprayshop Seeds supply Pea and Cereal Mixes at the Optimum Proportions to produce the desired combination of Yields and Quality.
Husbandry Notes:
• Forage Peas and Cereals should be Sown in a Mix at 200 kg/Ha.
