Soil and Climate Requirements:

Fastart Multicut Berseem prefers well-drained soils with good fertility.
It grows best in regions with a temperate climate, thriving in temperatures between 15°C to 25°C.
Seedbed Preparation:

Prepare a fine, level seedbed to facilitate uniform germination and emergence.
Planting Time and Depth:

Sow Fastart Multicut Berseem seeds during the early fall or late winter.
Plant seeds at a depth of about 1 to 2 centimeters.
Row Spacing and Seed Rate:

Maintain row spacing of 30 to 45 centimeters to allow for proper growth.
Recommended seed rate ranges from 15 to 20 kilograms per hectare.
Fertilization:

Apply fertilizers based on soil test results and crop requirements.
Nitrogen-rich fertilizers are often applied to promote leafy growth.

Fastart (Kern 201) is a premium berseem for Rabi green fodder — fresh, clean, kasni-free seed that comes already treated with Rhizobium culture. Sown once, it feeds through the whole winter.

Cutting schedule

  • First cut: about 55–60 days from timely sowing (late or heat-affected sowing can push this to 70–90 days)
  • Subsequent cuts: every 25–30 days
  • Total: 5–6 cuts, November through May — late sowing costs you 1–2 cuts
  • Green fodder: up to 200–250 quintal per acre at the upper end with good management
  • Crude protein: around 17% and above — animals eat it readily

Sowing

  • Window: mid-September through November, stretching into early December if needed. October (around 25°C) is best — the earlier and more timely the sowing, the more cuts you take
  • Seed rate: 8 kg per acre for timely sowing on a well-prepared field; 8–10 kg for late, broadcast or low-moisture conditions
  • Soil: well-drained loam to clay loam, neutral to slightly alkaline. Not suitable for usar or saline-sodic land
  • Pack size: 1 kg

Rhizobium-treated seed

Kern 201 ships pre-treated with Rhizobium culture, so no separate seed treatment is needed at your end. This gives:

  • Better and quicker germination — valuable in fields where berseem has not been grown before
  • Faster root development and stronger early growth
  • Biological nitrogen fixation in your own field, reducing urea dependence
  • Residual soil fertility that carries over to the following crop

Please note: Rhizobium supports establishment and nitrogen fixation. It is not a disease treatment.

Winter performance

Kern 201 keeps growing through the cold months, which is what makes it dependable dairy fodder from November onward. Timely October sowing matters, as the crop is sensitive to heat at establishment.

Please remember the product code KERN-201 when ordering.
