Advice is a bit contradictory, the handbook says this:
You must not do the following on the area of legume fallow once it’s established:
• graze it with livestock – if you want to graze with livestock you may want to consider action SAM3 (herbal leys) instead

I'm trying to put a value on the forage NUM3 could produce. I'm thinking of autumn establishment, cut & bale in June and again August (to control grass weeds). As a budget figure I was thinking 6 t/ha and maybe £25p/t so £150p/ha output. I've very little knowledge of this crop so would like to...
