skyfallHybrid Brassica

WHY CHOOSE SKYFALL?Skyfall is a new Hybrid brassica bred for feedinglivestock. Skyfall can provide a nutritious feed fordairy and beef cows in the summer and autumn,with later drilled crops providing feed through thewinter months.

Skyfall has the ability to produce two crops, amain crop and through its hybrid vigour, a secondregrowth crop.

For the best results drill into a firm moist seedbedin May - July at 5 kilos per hectare. To ensuremaximum yield apply fertiliser into the seedbedat 40 - 60 kilos Nitrogen per hectare. Skyfallwill benefit from slurry and farm yard manureapplications prior to drilling.

May drilled crops should be ready to graze in 12weeks and produce approx. 35-40 tonnes of leafyforage per hectare. Regrowth can be achieved by“back fencing” the initial crop and retaining someleaf and growing points to allow regrowth to occur.The regrowth should be ready to utilise 8 -10 weeksfrom the first grazing.
