Characteristics
Hardy Root and Brassica Crops for Winter Feed
Green Farm Seeds offers a robust selection of root and brassica seeds, specifically chosen for their value as nutrient-rich winter feed for livestock. This collection is essential for farmers looking to provide high-energy forage during the colder months, ideal for finishing sheep and cattle or maintaining herds when grazing is scarce.
The range features key varieties such as Fodder Beet, Stubble Turnips, Forage Rape, and Kale. Beyond their use as animal feed, these crops serve an important function as "break crops" in arable rotations. They help to improve soil structure, reduce weed and pest cycles, and replenish organic matter, contributing to the long-term health and fertility of the land.
