ANDREA, d.

Nurse grass

As an annual ryegrass, ANDREA is the early starter in catch crop cultivation. It can be cut and used as fresh feed or put into silage just 6 to 7 weeks after sowing. With its richly branched root system, ANDREA leaves large amounts of organic matter in the soil – important for improving the humus content and stabilising soil fermentation. ANDREA is very well suited as a nurse grass. When planting new permanent pastures, an additional 7 kg/ha of ANDREA is added to the seed mixture.
