Mix 251 (Pollinator Friendly Pasture Mix) is designed for forage pasture grasses and forbs with the environmental conditions of the eastern United States on sites having dry to medium soil moistures. The amount of seeds per pound of each species in the mix has been calculated using the number of seeds per pound of each species factored by environmental parameters. Those seeds are listed in the table below with weights of ounces per pound of seed mix.
Rate: 11.50-16.10 PLS pounds/acre
We recommend including a nurse crop for this mix. For fall thru spring, we recommend 20 to 32 Pounds of OATS per acre or 2 to 4 Pounds of ANNUAL RYE per acre. For summer, we recommend 6 to 8 Pounds of BROWN TOP MILLET per acre.
