Kale
MARROW STEM
A valuable crop suitable for the dairy herd coming off grass for the autumn. Has a thick stem and large nutritious leaves.
THOUSAND HEAD
Although it is not as palatable as Marrow Stem Kale, it is more leafy and frost resistant. Provided it is not over-mature or grown too large, cattle will eat the stem completely.
When seed is graded, it becomes uniform in size thus easing precision drilling. If you would like graded seed, please enquire when ordering.
