Default RE: Highly Fertilized Greens

I have been trying to figure that one out myself. I do know a lot of stuff is just turnips and rape. My local farm store sells dwarf essex rape for $1.50 per lb. Which is significantly less than any of the highly touted products. I have also wondered about the clovers. I think Ladino which they sell for $3.50 per lb is that same thing as in the Biologic and Whitetail Institute. What I can' t figure out is if these places have cross bred everything to somehow make a superior plant. I don' t know maybe, maybe not. You' ll find some people that swear by the name brand and other that say it is a waste of money. Also, farmers have been feeding cows, goats, sheep, you name it for years with the farms store plants. Don' t get me wrong I have the name brand stuff planted and it works great but I just keep thinking I could probably get the same results for less.
