BUTTERFLY PEA MILGARRA PER KG LEGUME (25) QLD AG 100719927

Sow Butterfly Pea Milgarra between October and December at a rate of 2-4 kg/ha, placing seed at 10-20mm depth. Inoculate seed with Cowpea group (Group CB) Rhizobium before sowing to ensure effective nitrogen fixation. For best results, combine with compatible tropical grasses such as Rhodes grass, signal grass, kikuyu, or setaria. Once established, this perennial legume requires minimal maintenance and will provide reliable ground cover and pasture improvement for many years. Tips: Butterfly Pea Milgarra excels on sandy and low-fertility soils where other legumes struggle, making it ideal for SE Queensland's variable terrain. Allow 6-8 weeks after sowing for establishment before grazing. Water during establishment if dry conditions occur, but once established the variety demonstrates good drought tolerance. Monitor for adequate grass companion coverage to maximise pasture productivity and soil protection.
