Agri-Environmental
We offer a range of mixtures to suit all agri-environmental schemes. We have listed below our most popular mixtures, however, we can produce mixtures to suit any scheme or specific requirements.
Nectar Rich Mixtures
Nectar rich mixtures that establish a nectar rich habitat holding high values of nectar for pollinating insects. These mixtures also hold high nitrogen fixing properties due to the red clover and vetch content. The brassica in these mixtures also provides a good root structure, which benefits soil structure and the ability to hold the nitrogen in the soil.
Wild Bird Cover
Where establishment of wild bird seed mixtures is permitted, our mixture offers winter cover and winter feed that supports wild bird populations.
Herb & Legume Mixtures
Herb and legume mixtures offer a low input, however, environmentally, and financially sustainable forage source for livestock due to nitrogen fixing properties which reduces the use of artificial fertilisers and captures carbon into the ley.
Cereal Crops
Cereal crops including barley, forage rye, oats, triticale & wheat and which scheme they comply with.
Buffer/Margin Crops & Habitat Strips
Having margin crops and habitat strips surrounding your fields on your farm will prevent run off of nutrients such as NPK which will protect local waterways from pollution. These strips also protect soil from erosion as they have good soil structure and provide a habitat for promoting wildlife numbers if they are undisturbed from poaching or compaction.
Herb & Legume Straights
A range of herb & legume straights that can be sown out as straights or mixed together to combine desirable characteristics.
