Farm Pollinator Mix

Sowing rate 4 kg pack (0.4 acre)
Sowing time Late March to late July (avoid very dry sowing periods
Sowing depth No more than 10 mm
Sowing instructions
  1. Sow on low fertile soil
  2. Remove existing plants and create a fine seedbed 100-150 mm deep
  3. Scatter seed at a rate of 1-2 g/m2
  4. Rake over so seed is lightly covered by soil
  5. Roll for good seed-to-soil contact

Maintenance

  • Do not apply any herbicides or fertilise
  • Control any noxious weeds by pulling out or using spot treatment
  • Cut down to 40-70 mm and remove clippings in late August/early September
  • Oversow at half rate each spring to maintain flowering intensity

Measures to enhance pollinators on your farm

  • Avoid ‘over-neatness’ to benefit bees and other wildlife
  • Allow native hedgerows such as whitethorn to flower each year
  • Avoid cutting hedgerows annually to allow flowering and fruiting
  • Leave at least one mature whitethorn/blackthorn tree within each hedgerow
  • Consider maintaining nesting habitats for bumblebees and solitary bees, keeping them free from pesticides
  • Wild bees need an uninterrupted source of wildflowers for food. Additional flowers are particularly important in summer after hedgerows have finished flowering

Farm Pollinator Mix ingredients

  • Red clover
  • White clover
  • Vetch
  • Phacelia

Leisure Lawn

Usage guide: Leisure Lawn Sowing rate: 25-30 g/m2 (100-120 kg/acre) Sowing time: April to late August Sowing depth: 10 mm Sowing instructions: Eliminate weeds well before preparing the seedbed, hand weed or use a suitable weed killer (seek advice from your local store). Create a good seedbed by digging the soil over to a depth of 15 cm and leave to settle, ideally for a few weeks. Remove weeds and excess stones. Rake over the whole area to create a flat, fine and friable seedbed. Firm the seedbed by rolling or treading the site evenly. Carry out two equal sowings at right angles to each other and diagonally to the main axis. Broadcast manually or use seed drill, rake level and roll. Ensure good seed to soil contact. Apply a suitable fertiliser to ensure adequate nutrients are available for the seed. After sowing:     
  • Control weeds if necessary
  • Take the first cut when the grass is 6-8 cm and mow down to about 3 ½ cm (or the highest setting your mower will cut to) this will help the lawn to thicken out
  • Over the next few weeks gradually reduce the cutting height down to 2 ½ cm.
Uses:@ Sowing a new lawn; restoring a lawn

Hybrid Silage

Sowing rate: 16 kg/acre (40 kg/ha) Sowing time: April-September (first week) Sowing depth: 10 -15 mm Sowing instructions: Cultivate to achieve a fine, firm seed bed. Ploughing will help level rough fields. Sow in good conditions (warm with rain forecast), no deeper than 10-15 mm. Roll well after sowing to ensure good soil/seed contact. Apply N, P & K as per soil test results and nitrates rules. After sowing: Monitor for pest attack and take immediate action where necessary. Post-emergence weed spray is essential approx. 5-6 weeks after establishment, prior to firsy grazing/cut. Where clover is included in the sown mixture, use a clover safe spray. Ideally, in the first year graze the new reseeds frequently and at low covers for the first few grazings to aid tillering and help increase the sward density. Subsequently, take three to four high-quality silage cuts from early May. Graze in the backend to ensure a clean sward is carried into the winter. Uses: Dairy – Y; cattle – Y; sheep – Y; silage – Y; zero-grazing – Y
