Soil Booster Graze
Soil Booster Graze can be used for grazing animals after 1 January. It provides a valuable high-energy feed for the winter grazing of cattle and sheep.
Soil Booster Graze will quickly establish green cover, it will also reduce nutrient leaching and condition the soil by improving through drainage, aeration and reducing erosion.
It’s recommended that you always have fresh water and a fibre source, such as silage, available when grazing this mixture.
