MeadowMax

MeadowMax is a mixture of traditional noncompetitive grasses designed for extensive farming systems and parkland settings.

MeadowMax brings together traditional native grasses and modern genetics to produce a sward that is long lasting, hard wearing and environmentally sustainable.

This mixture works well in parkland scenarios where its long growing season makes it suitable for early grazing followed by a cut of hay and then more grazing well into the autumn.

The tussocky nature of MeadowMax when left uncut makes it perfect for use as a field margin or wildlife friendly buffer strip.
