COUNTRY GRASSLAND 2440 ORGANIC

PDF DATASHEET

Profile

COUNTRY Grassland 2440 consists of intermediate and late perennial ryegrass and is ideal for overseeding of pastures with intensive use. The mixture is characterized by high forage quality and yields and the tetraploid varieties boost the performance and enhance the palatability. With regular overseeding, forage quality of pastures is maintained or even improved.

  • 100 % Perennial ryegrass
  • Suitable for overseeding and undersowing
  • High yields and forage quality

All organic mixtures are produced with 100 % organic content, if possible, in accordance with the EU Organic Farming Regulation 2018/848. For mixtures with at least 70% organic content, the farmer must obtain approval from his inspection body for the use of the conventional content before sowing, starting with production in January 2022. We aim to use at least 2 varieties per ripening group for mix proportions of more than 20 % of one species and for German ryegrass. The choice of varieties may vary depending on production. If individual species or varieties are not available, they are replaced by equivalent ones. The seed strengths are calculated for an optimal seedbed; in case of poor external conditions - such as insufficient seedbed, late sowing date, insufficient nutrient supply and unfavourable weather - the seed strengths should be adjusted upwards.
