West of Copenhagen the Frederikssund freeway is being expanded, and will be reopened for traffic in 2015. DLF-TRIFOLIUM's subsidiary Prodana Seeds is providing grass seed for the 60 ha of verges surrounding the freeway. The grass mixture is hydroseeded and is a new Fescue Masterline mixture consisting of Hard and Red fescue, Brown top, and Italian ryegrass as a “nurse crop”. The mixture establishes rapidly, is drought and salt tolerant and has sturdy roots preventing corrosion.
There is 1.5 kg grass seed to 100 square meters, this means that 9 tonnes of grass seed is needed to cover the verges of the new stretch.
