[QUOTE="Devil's advocate, post: 7811944, member: 1504"] What is your opinion of maize or fodder beet on steep fields? Or grazing stubble turnips on saturated fields close to rivers. I'm guilty by the way, although mostly veg/potatoes in my case with regard to erosion. But if we clean our own act up a bit, we can collectivily bang on the table & say we are right. I know not popular but I do support the idea of clover leys on arable farms & less fattening barley beef style (I used to do that). Yes grain still needed but reduce it considerably & build fertility & reduce blackgrass etc. The consumer is responsible though, consumer wants lean beef with a small amount of white fat, to keep cattle on grass/silage you really need an animal which has more marbling to the meat & the silage will make it creamy if not pale yellow colour.
