I thought I would try another mixture, but it was inferior to the usual high standards that I’m used to achieving with HF. I’m now back using HF mixtures again as they consistently give me very high yields of quality grass and silage to feed to my pedigree Simmental cattle.’ Robert Macgregor, Kirkton of Mailer, Bridge of Earn, Perthshire (Seed supplied by Carrs Billington Agriculture Ltd) OVERSEED WITH 16
Grass and Fodder Crops T H E M I X T U R E S ‘The HF range gives me the complete flexibility I look for in my grass mixtures. On our off lying acres we grow short term mixtures for cutting like HF Dividend with red clover added to boost both yield and protein levels. Closer to home we use longer term mixtures such as Grassmaker and Mastergraze. We now have an on-going programme of over-seeding to keep the grass young and productive and we can certainly see the benefits. HF mixtures are reliable and come with sound no nonsense advice’ Barry Smith, Foxfields Farm, Radbourne, Derbyshire (Seed supplied by Carrs Billington Agriculture Ltd) ‘We have used HF Evergreen for several years. We like the versatility of the mixture, it doesn’t matter if we need the fields for cutting or grazing Evergreen never lets us down. The quality of grass ensures our beef and sheep stock perform extremely well and importantly it also provides the early spring bite for our ewes and lambs. We usually add some Forage Rape with the mid summer reseeds which provides useful feed for the fattening lambs’ Ian Armstrong, Terrace Farm, Lorton, Cockermouth, Cumbria (Seed supplied by Jim Peet Agriculture) INTENSIVE GRAZING MIXTURE HF MASTERGRAZE Specially designed for intensive cattle grazing.
