AHDB webinar - Introducing SUPER-G: Sustainable Permanent Grassland project

The SUPER-G project is a European wide project aiming to work with farmers and policymakers to develop sustainable & effective permanent grassland systems. Aims of this project include optimising productivity, supporting biodiversity and delivering a number of other ecosystems services.

This webinar has a real focus on mixed species swards with farmer-led research.

James Drummond from Lemmington Hill Head Farm in Northumberland is trialling the performance of multi-species swards & herbal lays. Now in year two of the project, James has been working closely with delivery partner ADAS to monitor both animal and grassland performance. Other speakers include independent consultant Rhidian Jones, and livestock production specialist Emily Grant.

The webinar will cover the following topics:
  • What is SUPER-G?
  • Sward establishment and expectations
  • Grassland trial plots performance and results
  • Project ambitions and next steps
