In short, they make your rotation work harder without locking you into a long-term commitment. Whether you’re looking to improve soil between cash crops, break a pest cycle, or keep something green growing through winter, a well-timed cover crop can deliver benefits well beyond its growing season.

Our Cover Crop Seed

We focus on cover crop seed that delivers real gains in the paddock. From fast-establishing annuals to nitrogen-fixing legumes, each option in our range has a clear role to play.

For example, Captain Crimson Clover is a standout for its strong biomass, early nitrogen contribution, and low bloat risk, making it a smart pairing with ryegrass or cereal forage. Blue Lupin adds value in lighter soils with its deep root structure and protein-rich forage, while Faba Beans bring bulk, protein, and powerful nitrogen fixation to both grain and forage systems. For a quick, weed-suppressing green manure or pollinator-friendly break crop, Phacelia and Buckwheat offer excellent coverage with biodiversity benefits.

We also supply species like vetch, forage peas, linseed and millet, along with cover crop blends designed to tick multiple boxes in one pass. Each comes with clear sowing recommendations and guidance to help you get the best result.

Choosing the Right Cover Crop Seed

A good cover crop starts with knowing what you want it to achieve. Is it soil improvement, weed control, silage, or a seasonal break before replanting? Maybe it’s all of the above. Matching the crop to the job is key, and that’s where we come in.

Some species do best in cool soils and short rotations. Others thrive over summer and offer the added bonus of high-quality forage. We can help you narrow down the options, whether you're after a simple single-species sowing or a multi-purpose cover crop blend. If you’re not sure what fits best, talk to our team. We’ll help you select the right seed for your system and the season ahead.
