Agrovista autumn sown bumblebird mix

This mixture provides food resources for farmland birds such as tree sparrow and con bunting as well as a range of nectar feeding insects such as butterflies, bumblebees and solitary bees on arable and mixed farms.

Whilst the mixture is primarily designed to meet the aims of the CSS, AB16 and AHW1 SFI action it is also suitable for the AHL2 winter bird food action under SFI.

The mixture will last for two years but as with all mixtures should be grown in a way that can be reasonably expected to meet the aims of the action if it is to be compliant.
