BARENBRUG TILLAGE RADISH (20) PER KG 32203042

Tillage Radish Raphanus sativus.

These are a variety of the long white daikon type that have great capacity to develop a deep and
broad tap root.

The root has some initial capacity to penetrate soils, then when the crop is slashed and the roots die, leaving the soil more porous and richer with organic matter.

It helps reduce soil compaction.

Ideal for breaking up hard soils in the vegetable patch

Quick germination:

Tillage Radish is also a short-term fodder option (10-12 weeks), with first grazing in about 5-6 weeks and 2-3 grazings possible before maturity.

Weed suppression:

Scavenges nutrients.
Drought hardy, lower-risk option due to the energy reserves available in the tuber and its ability to access subsoil moisture and nutrients.

Tillage Radish produces very palatable feed, suitable for all cattle and sheep.

Maximum fodder and tuber development occur when sown in January to Feb, although it can also be sown in autumn and spring to provide quick feed options.

This is the ONLY cover crop radish proven to increase the yields.
