perennial forest rye
JOHAN
Green manure plant for game cover purposes, recultivation and forage use
Benefits:
- Usually biennial cultivation: abundant tasty green forage in the first year and high grain yield for game pasture or harvest in the second year
- Undemanding in cultivation, only too wet soils should be avoided
- Fast initial development, even under dry conditions
- High tillering capacity and intensive soil cover provide good weed suppression and protection against wind and water erosion
- Green manure plant with pronounced root system which improves air and water balance of the soil and binds nutrients that are prone to leaching
- Resistant to browsing by game and strong frost (up to -25 ° C)
