GRAZING BLEND

As the name implies, the focus is on small and medium leaved Clovers to excel under intensive livestock regimes especially sheep grazing

RED CLOVER BLEND

This is a very high yielding, high protein blend that is very vigorous in establishment and growth. Very good persistency and eelworm resistance ensure maximum output where it is used in short to medium term leys
