  • CropForage grass
  • Harvested forGreen fodder for cattle, goats and other livestock
  • Typical crop cycleFirst cut about 45–60 days after sowing, then regrowth cuts

Overview

Maxa-Millet is a forage grass in Zinbioseed's forage seed range.

Forage grasses give livestock farms a reliable supply of fresh green feed. Fast-growing, high-yielding varieties can be cut again and again through the season, lowering feed costs for cattle, goats and other herbivores.

Key features

  • Fast regrowth for repeated cutting
  • High yields of palatable green fodder
  • Feed fresh or conserve as silage

Growing guide

  1. LandPlough deeply and work in well-rotted manure: forage grasses respond strongly to fertile soil.
  2. SowingSow in rows into moist soil and cover the seed lightly.
  3. FertiliserTop-dress with nitrogen after each cut to drive fast regrowth.
  4. CuttingCut before the grass becomes stemmy and coarse, leaving a stubble of 10–15 cm so the plants regrow quickly.
