Our Irrigated Pasture Seed Mix is a premium forage blend designed for long-term, high-yield pastures. Featuring Mammoth Orchardgrass, Luscious Tetraploid Perennial Ryegrass, and Ladino Clover, this certified Oregon-grown seed mix delivers fast establishment, superior forage quality, and excellent persistence under irrigation. Ideal for cattle, sheep, and horse pastures, it provides a nutrient-rich, palatable feed while enhancing soil fertility through natural nitrogen fixation from clover. With high germination rates and 0% weed or noxious seeds, this blend ensures a robust, productive pasture that performs year after year. Perfect for new pasture establishment or overseeding, it supports rotational grazing systems and long-term livestock management.

Livestock & Usage
Designed for long-term irrigated pastures. Suitable for cattle, sheep, and horses. Tetraploid ryegrass provides fast establishment, while orchardgrass offers high yield and persistence. Ladino clover adds nitrogen fixation and improves forage quality.
Maintenance & Care
- Watering/Irrigation: Maintain consistent moisture for establishment. Avoid waterlogging.
- Mowing/Grazing: Allow grasses to reach 6–8 inches before first grazing. Rotational grazing recommended.
- Fertilizing: Test soil before seeding; supplement nitrogen after establishment if needed. Lime is partially included in the seed coating.
Soil Preparation
- Clear weeds, debris, and old crop residues.
- Loosen top 3–4 inches of soil for better root establishment.
- Soil pH: 6.0–7.5 is ideal for clover and grasses.
- Add additional lime if pH is below recommended levels, although some lime is already included in the seed coating.
Origin & Quality
Oregon-grown certified seed, high germination rates, and 0% weed or noxious seeds. Premium forage blend selected for persistence, yield, and nutritional quality.
FAQ
- Can this pasture seed mix tolerate heavy grazing? Yes, with rotational grazing practices to prevent overgrazing.
- Is it safe for all livestock? Yes, once the pasture is established.
- How soon can animals graze? Wait until grasses reach 6–8 inches, typically 4–6 weeks depending on conditions.
