The Rumen Room Podcasts

Sep 21 2023 • 19 mins

With spring planting coming up fast for us here in New Zealand, our latest episode focuses on decisions around choosing the right pasture and forage crop seeds.

Host Charlotte Westwood chats with guest podcaster, Southland agronomist Brian Young about all things seeds. Brian’s background includes farming (sheep and beef, and dairy), shearing, working as a rural retail rep and, for the last 9 years, working with PGG Wrightson Seeds, advising farmers how to grow the very best pastures and forage crops.

What’s involved in choosing the right type of seed? Just what is in that bag of seed?? How do we know that the seed will be right for us, will grow lots of feed for our stock, and won’t bring in unwanted weeds? Brian steps us through the information we need to make informed choices when choosing the right seed for us.

There’s a bit of info for everyone in our latest podcast.
