Characteristics
- Fast starter with good weed suppression.
- Well-balanced mixture where each component reaches its full potential!
- Frost-sensitive mixture, as the crop becomes straw-like, allowing sun & wind easy access to the soil so the field can be worked more quickly in spring!
- Important advantage: produces virtually no seed as early flowering components are absent
- Has no overlap with main arable crops (cereals, onions, ...), contains no monocotyledons, flax, ...
- Very workable soil thanks to the presence of legumes (namely Alexandrian clover)
