Winter Season Cover Crop Blend

Great starter custom blend of 3 winter cover crop plant species. Perfect for smaller paddocks, lifestyle farms, or producers wanting to trial multispecies cover cropping systems.

Adds living roots, seasonal biomass, and organic matter back into the soil profile.

Bare uncoated seed.

Important Information

Seed is not available to send to WA or TAS.

Seasonal conditions, sowing timing, grazing pressure, and rainfall will all influence establishment and performance.

  • multispecies systems work best when roots are kept actively growing
