Description

Masterline PM125 Birdstrike Grass Seed

This seed mixture is predominantly comprised of two cultivars of tall fescue. Tall fescue has an erect, stiff growth habit and is highly resistant to frost and drought and can easily be managed to the optimum mown height of 150 mm. It has been demonstrated that by managing airport grassland in this way it is possible to reduce the incidences of aircraft striking birds while in flight. Annual Rye-grass is included in the mix as it provides rapid germination and groundcover thus acting as a nurse crop for the tall fescue.

Packaging may vary - please see the press release from DLF for more information: DLF launches new packaging for Masterline mixtures

    • There is sufficient drainage.
    • The surface is level and firm.
    • The surface is moist.
  • Sow the seeds evenly, using the correct sowing rate to a depth of approximately 10 mm.
  • Ensure that the surface remanins moist for at least 2 - 3 weeks.
  • Make the first cut when the grass is 5 - 6 cm tall and tillering has started.

Overseeding Guidance

  • Prepare the existing turf by removing excess thatch and limiting irrigation and fertilisation.
  • Apply using the correct overseeding rate.
  • For best results use a disc seeder or a studded seed roller.
