Sheep, Beef and Deer Permanent Pastures
back to Seed Mixes Page
Agricom have a wide range of pasture species and cultivars to suit most situations, and there are many pasture seed mixes that can be used. We have listed some of our most commonly suggested/recommended mixes, which are tailored to different farm systems. These are not "off the shelf" mixes, but need to be made up by your seed retailer, so we advise discussing these options with them several weeks before you plan to sow.
