SPS Millet 'n' Herbs
The high quality, trouble free summer crop
This blend combines millet with chicory and white clover, increasing the quality of the crop and therefore animal performance over a stand alone millet crop. Shirohie millet has been a popular summer crop to sow over many years. It's fast to establish, is heat tolerant and can produce quick green feed during the summer depending on rainfall availability or irrigation.
- Diamondback moth, cabbage moth and cabbage white butterfly resistant
- Outstanding bulk summer feed with excellent regrowth even under hot conditions, given moisture availability
- Provides a strong chicory and clover based pasture for ryegrass to be direct drilled the following autumn
- Quick transition from summer crop to winter/spring pasture, minimising the downtime period from autumn sowing to grazing
