Legume-rich mixture providing rapid ground cover

Profile

TerraLife®-N-Fixx 50 is composed of various legumes and non-legumes. The mixture is formulated to maximise nutrient efficiency, with small- and large-seeded legumes increasing the nitrogen-fixing potential. Other plant species, such as sunflower, sorghum and phacelia, reabsorb the nitrogen that is released and protect it from leaching. At the same time, the mixture can establish itself quickly, suppress weeds and protect against erosion. The composition of the mixture is specifically tailored for use in winter cereal crop rotations. Flowering components provide nectar and pollen for pollinating insects. 

  • Flowering components for pollen resources
  • High nitrogen fixation potential
  • Ideal for oilseed rape crop rotations
