bristle oat / saia oat

CODEX

CODEX has a long vegetative growing phase due to a late ear emergence
Necessity of processing to prevent from seeding is reduced - cost minimization
Break crop with rapid mass formation in the beginning, despite late ear emergence
Weeds and volunter cereals are suppressed by the high competitiveness
Intensive tuft roots and mulch layer after winter form effective erosion protection for the protection of the soil and surface waters
CODEX as a not winterhard crop is suitable for cover crop blends - as well as for oilseed rape crop rotations
