Problem with feeding rocket fuel to youngsters is take a lot of keeping clean it runs through them that fast if it’s baled and not to short chop isn’t as bad as if clamped difference for us is 1/3 extra strawGrass is all long term so fine on that aspect, I could do exactly as you say fairly easily
If I cut my first cut in late april would that have any detrimental effect on the hay crop? Only reason being I cant graze it so if left to may it tends to have too much stalk for my liking. I cant imagine it would
Next question for everyone do my young stock need top quality silage? Or will they be fine with hay?! I was aiming for rocket fuel red clover silage for them so I could possibly cut concentrates out completely over the winter? Am I just making it more expensive elsewhere by doing so?
