      Aber HSG 3 + Timothy

      With all the attributes of Aber HSG 3, this mixture has the addition of Timothy, a grass that will add ‘bottom’ to the sward and provide greater tolerance to wet conditions. Presto is chosen for its excellent spring growth and palatability.

      Key benefits in summary

      • Combines a very good grazing yield and an outstanding grazing D- value
      • Outstanding autumn production ensures strong extended grazing potential
      • Very persistent sward with good ‘bottom’
      • High palatability and dry matter intakes
      • Reduced nitrogen losses to the environment
      • Persists for up to 10 years

      Heading date average for Aber HSG 3 + Timothy is 30 May for Northern Ireland.
      When cutting for silage, aim to cut 5-10 days before average heading date for optimum quality. Optimum spread of heading dates within mixtures for grazing and cutting results in better performance of the leys.
