The ultimate brassica range
for your business
Brassica forage crops
We are committed to providing brassica forage crops that not only produce high quantities of feed, but also lead to improved animal performance through feed quality, thereby providing positive benefits to the New Zealand farmer.
Why sow brassicas?
Brassicas provide a bulk amount of high quality feed to maximise growth rates and increase the number of stock finished or maintained per hectare.A brassica crop provides a break from pasture, decreasing pest levels, eliminating weed problems and with fertiliser helps correct soil fertility problems, resulting in cleaner, higher producing pasture.
Using brassicas helps avoid internal parasites and pathogens that cause animal health problems, such as facial eczema and ryegrass staggers. Brassica crops can increase stock productivity and therefore increase farm profitability.
When to use brassicas
- During periods of feed shortagethrough the summer, autumn and winter
- To supplement periods of low pasture quality
- To finish stock
- When a summer-safe feed is required
- Prior to pasture renewal
