Clover Overseeding Mixtures
Clover overseeding Mixtures are available in 5kg packs that will sow between 2.5-5 acres depending on the level of clover desired in the sward. Tips for establishing clover into existing swards:
• Ensure soil pH is 6.5 or above using calciprill as required.
• Take a cut of silage or tightly graze the old sward before sowing.
• Spread clover seed using a fertiliser sower, mixing seed with calicprill or a non-nitrogen fertiliser. You could also stitch the seed in using an Einbock type machine.
• Graze sward 5 days after sowing and every 21 days thereafter grazing tightly each time to promote the establishment and growth of the clover.
