Our pony paddock
(or pasture) mixture without ryegrass provides a diverse range of grazing forage without the higher protein content of ryegrass
based mixtures which may contribute to weight gain and/or an increased risk of equine laminitis. This seeds mixture is ideal for either low stock level permanent grazing or the rotational grazing of horses or ponies on
restricted intake management. Even without ryegrass the resulting sward
produces a durable, persistent and hardwearing turf suitable for establishment
on most soil types and does particularly well on light or free draining ground. For further discussion
