Details
Selecting the correct grass seed for airfields is business critical and therefore extremely important. One of the biggest dangers in the aviation industry is birds striking aircraft.
Premier Airfield grass seed mixture is designed to be sown around airfields, and maintained at the height of 150mm, as per a ‘Long Grass Management’ programme, thereby deterring birds from landing around the runway. The mix benefits from varieties of grass that promote upright growth making it difficult for birds to land.
Contents Benefits
- 70% Tall Fescue
- 15% Cocksfoot
- 5% Perennial Ryegrass
Key Benefits
- For areas around airport runways
- Creates an unfavourable habitat for birds
- Stiff, upright growth habit deters birds from landing
- Very persistent and tolerant of harsh conditions
- Designed to be used as part of a ‘Long Grass Management’ programme
Our Recommendation
