Sourveldt Mix
SOURVELD MIX
Sourveld Mix is a perennial mix including Wool Grass, Couch Grass, Aries II, MG-4, Rhodes Grass and Love Grass. It is a perennial mixture of sourveld grasses that are ideal for soil types with a low pH (between 3.5 and 5). Some of the benefits of the Sourveld Mix are; high cold and drought tolerance; good digestibility and palatability; Rhodes Grass is salt tolerant; Wool Grass can grow on infertile soils and is tolerant to low levels of phosphorus; Bread Grass, Couch Grass and Love Grass have very low demands in soil fertility and can grow in most soil types. The Sourveld Mix is suitable for Game, Sheep, Goats and Cattle.
White Buffalo Grass
White Buffalo Grass (Panicum maximum spp.) is a palatable and digestible perennial forage grass with tussocks. The main characteristic of this species is its good regrowth capacity after grazing. It is well received by cattle, game, horses, sheep and goats.
Couch Grass
Couch Grass is a perennial grass, forming thick mats by means of stolons and rhizomes. Although it is partial to warm climates, it is very adaptable and thrives in almost all soil types. It provides good grazing and helps to prevent soil erosion.
Bread Grass
Bread Grass (Brachiaria brizantha spp.) is a perennial tropical grass with low demands in soil fertility. It has a good production of dry matter. It is suitable for beef and dairy cattle. It is resistant to cold weather with a good and fast regrowth after the event.
Rhodes Grass
Rhodes Grass is a hardy, tufted perennial grass used to restore soil structure and improve organic matter levels. It can effectively out-compete and smother weeds. It develops good ground cover and effectively mitigates soil erosion once established.
Love Grass
Love Grass a.k.a Oulandsgras is a tufted perennial summer grass that is very hardy. It is cold and drought tolerant. It has excellent grazing potential for domestic animals. It grows in well-drained, acid soils with a pH of 4.5 to 7.
Wool Grass
Wool Grass a.k.a Bottle Brush Grass is a perennial, tufted grass with a single inflorescence. It is palatable and drought resistant. It can grow on infertile soils and is tolerant to low levels of phosphorus.
