Grow a high-yielding, vigorous sward with Heavy Crop Medium Term Pasture Grass Seed – a robust seed blend designed for intensive grazing and cutting rotations over a 2–4 year period. This carefully selected mix includes high-performing tetraploid and diploid perennial ryegrasses that deliver excellent bulk, rapid establishment, and strong regrowth. Ideal for livestock farmers seeking reliable forage output, the Heavy Crop blend is particularly well-suited to medium-term leys used for silage production, hay, or repeated grazing. With improved digestibility and palatability, this seed mix supports increased animal performance while reducing reliance on bought-in feed. Whether you’re reseeding after arable rotation, renewing worn leys, or planning a forage-rich system, this mix gives you the flexibility and output needed for efficient, productive pasture.
