Herald

Medium/long term dual purpose Grazing Silage Hay

Average Heading Date: 2nd June

Herald is a versatile mix for both cutting and grazing. Its higher seed rate ensures quick establishment and high yields. A wide range of heading dates are used to provide excellent grass production throughout the growing season and offers a slightly earlier cutting or grazing option. The dense base means that it is persistent when grazed. A clover blend is included to suit a wide range of grassland systems and provides the benefit of soil N fixation. This blend will also help to increase protein levels. Timothy is used as it is a palatable grass, which helps fill the summer gap and thrives on wetter soil types.
