PERKO agrimony – a universal cover crop and fodder plant

PERKO agrimony is a variety of rapeseed that was created by crossing winter rapeseed with Chinese cabbage, combining the features of both plants. Its main use is cultivation as a cover crop and the production of animal feed, as well as snail breeding. Thanks to its versatility and ability to adapt to various conditions, PERKO Agrimony is becoming more and more popular among farmers.

Application:

• Catch crop: It is perfect as a winter, spring and stubble cover crop, improving the soil structure and increasing its fertility.
• Animal feed: Perfect fodder for feeding cattle in the form of green fodder, dried fodder and for grazing.
• Snail breeding: An ideal choice for snail breeders - it provides shelter and supplements the snails' diet thanks to its delicate, low-woody mass.

Characteristic:

• Winter hardiness: PERKO agrimony tolerates low temperatures well, which makes it resistant to winter conditions.
• Strong growth: A fast-growing plant with a high ability to regrow after mowing, which allows for large yields.
• Big yield: It ensures high efficiency both in the form of green fodder and dried fodder.
• Strongly developed root system: Deep roots allow the plant to efficiently absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
• Little woody green mass: The delicate structure of the green mass makes turnip rape ideal for fodder and for snail breeding.

Cultivation:

PERKO agrimony prefers light soils, but is extremely versatile, so it can be grown in various cultivation systems:

• Green mass: It can be sown as a winter cover crop, spring main crop or stubble cover crop.
• Snail farming: In tunnel cultivation, turnip rape can be sown at any time, adapting to the grower's needs.

Sowing rate:

• Main sowing (rare): 8-15 kg/ha
• Main sowing (dense): 20-35 kg/ha
• Cover crop sowing: 15-30 kg/ha
• Snail farming (rare): 12-20 kg/ha
• Snail farming (dense): 18-35 kg/ha

PERKO agrimony is a versatile plant that can be used in many applications, from improving soil structure to providing valuable animal feed and supporting snail breeding. Thanks to its unique features, it is an irreplaceable element of modern agriculture.
