Game Maize
Game Maize is still one of the most popular crops used for cover and feed. Nearly all maize varieties used for game cover have at some stage been commercial forage or grain varieties. As these varieties are superseded by newer hybrids, stocks of those being replaced diminish and we carefully select the most suitable of these for our game cover purposes.
N.B. Height of maize may vary depending on seasonal and management variations. The later the sowing date the later the maturity of the maize.
RAPID FIRE
Rapid Fire is still our biggest selling brand of maize. Varieties are selected for their good standing ability, early vigour and a low cob carriage.

LATE SHOT
Late Shot is selected for very late maturity and good standing ability. It produces an immature cob that only develops to the 'bright white' stage under normal UK autumn and winter conditions. Due to the late cob formation it tends to be of less interest to rats and badgers that can decimate more mature cobbed varieties through the shooting season.
