Herbal Leys present a number of advantages over typical grass-clover leys. Vetch improves soil fertility, the large number of flowers provide for pollinators, and the variety leads to better carbon capture, helping the environment. A diverse forage reduces the need for supplements. Protein from legumes, energy from grasses, micronutrients from herbs form a highly nutritious mix.
Herbal Leys are good for the wallet too- natural fertilisers lower manufactured fertiliser cost, sainfoin acts as a natural pesticide, and varying root depths help protect against drought, a common source of pasture loss (and money loss!).
This Mix is sold by acre coverage, with 1 Acre being 13KG of seed.

Sowing & Growing
Sow at a rate of 13Kg per Acre
Sow in late summer and early autumn
Broadcast (scatter) seed or shallow drill no deeper than 1cm. Small seeds struggle to germinate when sown deeper than 1cm.
Roll after sowing to retain moisture, ensure good seed-to-soil contact and reduce slug damage. Do not roll if the surface has running rainwater.
Rest your herbal leys from cutting and grazing for at least 5 weeks in the summer.
