Got a field that’s been grass since I was born that needs a fessed this autumn.
Over summer it was sprayed of and redstart rape drilled to give it a break. Been grazed off once and will have a few more ewe lambs run over it again as a bit of regrow that showing and with today’s rain it should put on more fur a bonus feed.
Time to decide on a grass mix for it. I want something that will stand a dry summer that we often get. Light Sandy soil. North west facing in the main.
But everything seems to have cocksfoot in it. My experience of that is it’s horribly unpalatable at best.
Area will be both grazed and cut. Want something that gets going early in season.
