The burgeoning demand for Linseed has lead to traders and buyers to look for farmers and growers to sign up and grow yellow or brown Linseed under contract.
EasyCut varieties are proving a big hit with growers. Many are saying ‘it was a dream to cut…’ and ‘…we absolutely flew through the crop”. The combination of short straw and low fibre content allows for maximum harvest and minimum downtime.
Not only can the team at St. Catherine’s Seeds provide you with superb quality seeds, but we are also able to provide advice on sowing and harvesting. With markets ready and willing to negotiate excellent rates, growers can have peace of mind that their crop will return an exciting R.O.I. Growing Spring Linseed can achieve over £400 per tonne!
Linseed can be far more profitable and easier to grow than Spring OSR, Peas or Beans. Linseed is:
- An excellent break crop – growers usually report the highest Wheat yields behind Linseed
- An asset to include it as part of your blackgrass control strategy
- Reduce slug problems- growers are unlikely to need slug pellets in the following Wheat crop
- Does not shed or shatter
- Improved weed control over other Spring break crops, particularly Spring OSR, beans and peas
