Barley Clipped 1 ton Barley can be used for human or animal consumption and is very nutritious and packed with vitamins and minerals.
Many people grow fodder for their animals, such as cattle, horses, goats, sheep, chickens… and even your cat.
Barley (Hordeum vulgare), a member of the grass family, is a major cereal grain grown in temperate climates globally. It was one of the first cultivated grains, particularly in Eurasia as early as 10,000 years ago.[3] Barley has been used as animal fodder, as a source of fermentable material for beer and certain distilled beverages, and as a component of various health foods. It is used in soups and stews, and in barley bread of various cultures. Barley grains are commonly made into malt in a traditional and ancient method of preparation.
Sunflower Seeds (Pollinated) 25kg, is a warm season broadleaf that is used as a cover crop – either as a “break crop” in certain crop rotations; or to add diversity to mixtures.
Sunflower has certain benefits as a “green manure”:
Produces high levels of organic matter.
On termination of the crop, a dense moisture-conserving mat is formed.
Forms a deep, extensive root system that hosts mycorrhizal fungi.
The broad leaves and quick establishment assists in smothering weeds.
Attracts pollinators.
Used as part of “insect havens” – attracting insect predators.

• Good heat and drought tolerance.
• Shorter plant with excellent lodging resistance.
• Good stem and yellow rust resistance.
• Moderate Russian wheat aphid resistance.
Crushed rye is a coarse, whole grain rye product. The rye kernel is finely crushed between rollers provides a very rough character to the bread. Rye is a rich; versatile source of protein and dietary fibre, especially a type of fibre called arabinoxylan, that is known for its high anti-oxidant activity.
