Texsel Greens are a fast growing, shiny leaved brassica developed from Ethiopian mustard.
They are easy to establish and provide frost hardy cover, producing a broken canopy which is great for flushing birds.
Their rapid growth is ideal for suppressing weeds and they are often used as a patching crop when spring crops have failed.

Game Cover
Our range of game cover mixtures are specially formulated to ensure you will be able to achieve the best from your cover crops. Combining different species into a mixture can extend the utilisation period, help to attract and hold specific types of game and provide feed and cover where both are required.
Brassicas
Brassicas are faster to establish and grow more rapidly than kale. They are often used as a rescue or catch crop that will provide good cover for holding, driving and feeding game birds
