        Sowing rate: 1 ha pack – 19 kg

        Sowing time: Sow from mid-July up until 15 September if sowing for ACRES

        Sowing depth: 10-15 mm

        Sowing instructions: Cultivate to achieve a fine, firm seedbed. Ploughing is not permitted if sowing within the ACRES scheme. Sow in good conditions (warm with rain forecast). Roll after sowing to ensure good soil/seed contact.

        After sowing: Crop must remain in place until after 1 January if sown within ACRES. Leaving the crop in place over winter will help improve soil structure and reduce soil erosion.
