Twister is the latest brassica release from Peak Plant Genetics, the breeders of Aerifi radish and Jackpot turnips. Twister is a hybrid rape x turnip cross species developed for forage and cover crops. These hybrid plants produce a highly palatable green top which is why they are often referred to as a leafy turnip. When used for forage they work excellent in grazing mixes with winter annual small grains or spring planted oats and Italian ryegrass. Twister can also be combined with other brassica species providing earlier forage than turnips or radishes. Twister is a great addition in wildlife food plots, whitetail deer prefer them earlier in the season since they don’t require a hard freeze. In cover crop mixtures Twister can be planted fall, spring and summer providing diversity and nutrient scavenging. Twister residue will break down rapidly once terminated.
