      • For ACRES, a mixture of at least two crops from the prescribed list must be sown.
      • Tillage radish cover crops must remain in situ until after 1 January.

      Ask an expert

      Please ask an expert if you would like any advice about the optimal Tillage radish seeding rate or any other catch crops.

        Tillage radish sowing rate: 4-6 kg/ha

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

        Frost tolerance: Poor – frost will help decay Tillage radish and thus avoid the requirement for chemical spray

        Biomass: Will generate large biomass quickly

        Pests & diseases: Generally not a problem, but clubroot could become an issue if brassicas are used as a catch crop over a period of years.
