This section covers the specific need for ORGANIC food products and the role of ORGANIC grass seed mixtures in this sector.
A growing percentage of the population pay more attention to what they eat and drink. This manifests itself as a desire to use crops, meat and milk that are produced from as natural a source as possible.
Since its inception two years ago, DLF Organic has led the market and provided grass seed mixtures that match and surpass the criteria to meet official standards. This is achieved with fully recommended
and well known varieties that are technically excellent.
Clover plays an integral part in the performance of these mixtures. It is vital that the correct species of grass and clover are mixed at the optimum rates to ensure the right balance is achieved and no individual species is allowed to dominate to the detriment of the
others and the sward.
Extensive trial work from independent farms and our own experimental farm at Didbrook near Cheltenham have enabled us to offer the best mixtures available. ALl the ORGNIC mixtures contain 60% ORGANIC seed to meet the standards of the certifying authorities.
