About
- Inclusion of main crop turnip provides a winter hardy aspect to the mixture
- Offers the potential to be grazed later in the season when the rape might have been adversely affected by frost
- Main crop turnips will provide a greater yield than stubble turnips
- Should be sown in June/early July to provide the main crop turnips the opportunity to bulk
