Barkant Turnips

Barkants are a forage type turnip, producing more leaf and stem material when compared to purple top turnips. This increase of production makes Barkants the variety of choice when planning to graze cover crop acres. Barkants also offer a better disease package than purple top turnips, which helps greatly when seeding turnips on the same acres year after year. Much like purple top turnips, Barkants are known for their rapid fall growth, great biomass production and nutrient scavenging ability.
