Tipperary Grass Rejuvenation Mixture
A specially formulated mixture of late tetraploid perennial ryegrass to extend the life of an existing sward, whilst maintaining the productivity of yield and quality.
Overseeding can improve an existing sward with the addition of a new seed without the cost of a full reseed. The inclusion of a larger late tetraploid seed allows it to establish and compete with the existing sward.
Sowing rate 10kg/ac.
GroQuik® dressed for faster germination.
Tipperary Grass Multispecies Mixture
In recent years, multi-species swards have become increasingly popular amongst farmers in Ireland due to their ability to produce high yields of quality forage, with greatly reduced rates of nitrogen fertiliser compared to ryegrass-only swards.
The use of multi-species swards compared to grass only swards can also provide a wide range of environmental and ecological benefits:
- Plantain and chicory act at different levels to avoid losses of nitrogen on the farm: reduced leaching, better N use by livestock, and fewer emissions from urine patches.
- Higher rates of carbon sequestration due to deeper root depths.
- They are also very beneficial for biodiversity and in particular pollinators who feed on the flowering plants in multi-species swards.
Tipperary Grass Horse Grazing
An equine mixture formulated to cater to diverse needs provides nutritious, persistent, and palatable pastures.
- Suitable for hay, haylage, or as a grazing mixture.
- Minimal poaching damage due to the inclusion of strong creeping red fescue, smooth stalked meadow grass, and dwarf perennial ryegrass.
