BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! Green Beast is a highly digestible protein source for deer during the harsh winters. This blend of New Zealand Brassicas is ideal for forage production and provides excellent nutrition. After the first frost, deer graze the sweet leafy area of the plant until grazing the bulbs of the plant. While promoting deer health, Green Beast is the mix you need for small hunting plots late in the season.
