Maize and grass are now common bedfellows, but getting them growing together usually involves making a mid-season drilling pass that risks clattering maize plants and disturbing soil.
Not so for Staffordshire-based farmers and contractors Andrew and Rob Moore.
Together with South Staffs Water and Agrovista, they have come up with a means of getting both in the ground at the same time using a relatively simple combination of off-the-shelf ingredients.
The one-pass system is based on their modified Vaderstad Tempo F8, which has been kitted out with a home-made applicator to spread a fescue mix in bands between the rows.
