    Farmplan Cattle Manager about to become Herdwatch

    Gallup XL v's Gallup hi aktiv

    As above XL £134 and Hi aktiv £188. For total destruction of old permanent pasture with a few rushes but little other weeds so i think 6 litre per hectare with XL and just 4.4 litre per hectare with hi aktiv. Any other difference? Any rain faster? There just the best prices i can find for 20l cans.
