Saia oat / Bristle oat
CODEX
The late Saia oat
Benefits:
- CODEX has a long vegetative growing phase due to a late ear emergence
- Necessity of processing to prevent from seeding is reduced - cost minimization
- Break crop with rapid mass formation in the beginning, despite late ear emergence
- Weeds and volunter cereals are suppressed by the high competitiveness
- Intensive tuft roots and mulch layer after winter form effective erosion protection for the protection of the soil and surface waters
- CODEX as a not winterhard crop is suitable for cover crop blends - as well as for oilseed rape crop rotations
