Introduction

Welcome to our 2023 Gamecover and Environmental Seed Handbook

In keeping with other years, we are pleased to offer our usual comprehensive range of seeds. Throughout the handbook we have highlighted the suitability of each for either cover, feed or holding ability. Every season brings its own challenges, and it is extremely important to plan well in advance which types of crops you wish to grow, their requirements for nutrition, weed control options and other key factors to ensure the best chance of growing a good crop.

Alongside the seed range we continue to offer our full support package from establishment to the finished crop including site planning, soil analysis, full nutrient planning and finishing with weed control and general crop husbandry. We believe this service is second to none and combined with our years of experience within the seed industry we have a long history of consistent success. We hope you find this handbook useful and informative, and we look forward to hearing from you to discuss your ideas and requirements for the coming season. In addition to this guide, we have also produced a supplement for Roots and Cover crops. This explores these options in more detail and the range of seeds available to comply with them. We have tried to keep what can become an unnecessarily complicated subject as straightforward as possible. If you have difficulty finding what you need or would like to discuss your options further, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Higher Tier is for land that requires more complex management tailored to the individual site. Mid-Tier provides a range of options and capital items that together help to deliver a broad range of environmental benefits. The 4 Wildlife Offers provide a simpler set of options to help improve the wildlife on their farm. These are broken down into: The Arable Offer Countryside Stewardship gives incentives for land managers to look after their environment and is made up of the following elements:

The Lowland Grazing Offer The Mixed Farming Offer The Upland Offer

Countryside Stewardship will eventually be replaced with the new Environmental Land Management ( ELM ) scheme. Key Countryside Stewardship Codes AB1- Nectar Flower Mix Establish in blocks or strips between 1st March – 15th September. Sow a grass free mix which contains a minimum 6 flower species – of which 2 must include: Common Knapweed, Must Mallow, Oxeye Daisy, Wild Carrot or Yarrow. Should contain a mix of short term legumes and longer lived wildflower species. Sow at 15 kg/ha. AB3 - Beetle Banks Sow a mixture of fine-leaved grasses such as Red Fescue together with some tussock-forming varieties like Tall Fescue, Timothy and Cocksfoot. AB8 – Flower Rich Margins & Plots Establish a flower rich margin between April/May and early September ( mid to late summer is usually the best time to sow wildflowers ) . Should contain a minimum of 4 grass species and 10 wildflower species. The grass component will not exceed 90% of the total seed mix by weight. No individual flower species will exceed 25% of the total wildflower species component by weight. Sow at 20kg/ha. AB9- Winter Bird Food Establish between 15th February – 15th June.

Sowing and Growing Game Cover Every season brings its own challenges, and it is extremely important to plan well in advance which types of crops you wish to grow, their requirements for nutrition, weed control options and other key factors to ensure the best chance of growing a good crop. Starting from the Soil up … • Know your soil conditions. Regular sampling is the best way to keep it in good condition and ensure crop performance. • Wherever practical or available, always use FYM on your cover crop areas. Not only is it a good nutrient source, but it also provides a valuable source of organic matter to help maintain soil structure. • Remove any areas of compaction, whether caused by vehicles, foot traffic or poor drainage. Dig holes to assess the problem in known areas and use appropriate methods to relieve any compaction found. • Ensure thorough mulching of previous crops. This makes residues easier to plough in and helps to speed the decomposition process. • Plough a minimum depth of 6 inches, leaving a clean, level surface to work with. • Please remember to observe all the relevant Cross Compliance guidelines that are now applicable. GAEC, NVZ and SMRs are all still applicable to cover crops.

Fertiliser • Based on soil analysis we are able to provide nutrient advice and produce a nutrient plan for you. • Granulated lime is a fast solution where pH is a problem. • We are able to supply a full range of fertiliser products, from straights to blends. • In situations where manures are not available, there are our special blends which will supply all the necessary nutrients for your game cover crops. • A full range of foliar feeds and micronutrients are available, should they be required for the growing crop. • As well as straights and blends we are able to offer a full range of fertiliser products to suit your cover crop needs.

Drilling • Soil conditions are far more important than calendar date. • Crops that are drilled into unfavourable conditions, or too early, will always be at a disadvantage. • Crops, such as Kale, Mustard, Linseed etc can be at greater risk to flea beetle attack if they do not grow strong early on. Each season is individual, and the correct soil temperature and conditions are vital. • Please refer to the chart for individual crops sowing rates, their depths and widths. • Wherever possible/practical, the majority of crops benefit from being sown in wider, approximately 15 inch rows. Nearly all modern cereal drills are capable of doing this, by either special adapters or a simple pipe tracing and blocking exercise. Please try to do this if you can. Crops that are too thick can have lodging problems and may present other difficulties later in the season. • Ensure accurate depth. Planting an individual crop is straightforward enough, but when planting a combination of crops, maize, sorghum, millet etc, it is advisable when possible/practical to sow the maize first and then over drill the other elements. • Ensure good seed to soil contact. Try and leave a fine level and firm finish. Consolidate with ring rollers. Try not to use heavy flat rolls as they can contribute to soil erosion by increasing rainwater run-off risks. Weed Control • Good weed control is very important for a successful crop. • If you are unsure of your programme or have any particular problems, please contact us before you drill. Due to the withdrawal of some products and the nature of some of the mixtures, it is very important to have a clear herbicide programme before you start. • Stale seedbeds are a well-established method of weed control and we would recommend that you use them wherever possible, particularly where a mixture is to be sown and another weed control is not possible. • If using pre-emergence herbicides, then a level, firm, clod- free surface is very important.

Sorghum and Maize For a number of seasons now maize and sorghum, either as a mix or straights, have been the mainstay of most people ’ s cover crops. The development in varieties within both crops and particularly the ability to choose your height for sorghum has made them very popular. Please find listed below a brief summary of the basic guidelines for both maize and sorghum. Should you require some more detailed maize information, we have produced a guide which is available upon request. Gamecover Maize Providing a tall, upright plant, maize is an attractive cover for game birds. As there is little cover at low height, it allows the birds to move freely underneath. The added benefit of maize is that it does also produces a feed value. Can be partnered well with Millet or Kale.

. Wherever possible always plough for the new crop. Maize Eyespot and Fusarium can be serious problems given the right conditions and ploughing down the old crop residue as soon as possible will help to minimise disease carry over. Maize is very sensitive to pH; if it is below 6 then this needs to be addressed. A soil test should be carried out if unsure. Seedbeds need to be worked to produce 6 inches of tilth and be compaction free. Maize needs a consistent soil temperature of 8 degrees to grow properly. When making the decision to drill, please ensure that the risk of frost has passed, which usually means from mid-April onwards. Sowing depth is a key consideration, particularly when using seed without a bird repellent. Seed rate is also important as reducing this can have a positive impact upon standing ability. If grown with other crops, it is best to drill the elements separately ensuring that each one is at the correct depth, which may mean drilling twice. Plan your herbicide programmes before you sow your crop, taking into account any known problems or limitations if the maize is to be sown as part of a mixture. Sown as a straight crop, maize presents a good opportunity to use some very strong weed control options.

Bartholomews Maize Blend ( Trigger ) WH F • Will achieve a spread of maturity cob ripeness and supply a valuable source of feed – tried and tested. • A blend combining early, intermediate and late varieties. • All varieties are selected for good early vigour and standing power. • Korit treated • 50,000 seed pack

stage in normal growing years. • Also known as cob-less maize. • Korit treated. • 45,000 seed pack.

Sorghum Sorghum shares the same tillage requirements as maize and is equally as sensitive to pH but there are some very important differences. Sorghum requires a consistent soil temperature of 14-15 degrees, which is a lot higher than maize. It is a very common mistake to sow the crop before these temperatures are reached. In a typical year, this probably will not be until early June. Herbicide programmes within the sorghum crop require some extra thought as grass weed control is not possible. If there are any known grass weed problems and the crop is still to be sown, effective use of a stale seedbed is vital. In some cases, choosing a different product may be the best option for controlling weeds. Dwarf Sorghum - Variety – Shorty WH • Adds warmth to Maize when sown adjacent. • Ideal for driving and winter cover. • Can make excellent flushing points within Maize. • Excellent replacement for Kale • Best sown in June or when soil temp is 14°c.
