Mantilla is an exciting variety for AD, delivering high yields of highly digestible feedstock.
An impressive leafy crop with large cobs that maximises production per hectare. Mantilla has improved digestibility with the potential to boost methane production. Unlike many other varieties of this maturity, Mantilla’s performance has been independently assessed and proven in BSPB/NIAB trials.
