Hancock's Pasture Seed Mixes
Hancock's Horse Pasture Grass Seed Mix - Warm Climate Mix - Our warm climate horse pasture grass seed mixture is designed for extreme drought resistance, close grazing tolerance, and wide regional adaptability. Many horse pasture owners face the seemingly never ending battle of maintaining a productive horse pasture in the warm climate zones. 

Our warm climate horse pasture seed mixture provides wide range of warm season perennial grass varieties that have shown extreme survivability.  There are many sceptics who believe that a horse pasture should only have one grass variety to allow for proper management practices. Our horse pasture seed mixture will provide equestrian owners with the most durable horse pasture available for the southern climates.  We feel that the most important aspect of a pasture is not always how perfect it look as much as how perfect it performs during extremely dry conditions, extremely wet conditions and how it recovers from frost damage.  Our warm climate horse pasture seed mixture is designed to provide a low maintenance pasture that will survive most any weather conditions.  This mixture does need fertilizer and proper rotational grazing to maintain.
