Red Millet is earlier maturing than white and does not stand well when sown alone.
However it is a good partner to use with white millet as it extends the feeding period (see Millgame Millet Mix).
As with other millets, it is susceptible to frost.

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.
