Yet to speak to the guy about what he wants. All I know is he was planning on topping it before the next crop. He just wants fertility built.
I turned 250 ewes with singles into an 8ac field that was similar, but perhaps not as far on, about a month ago, to try to take the top off it. They trampled a good bit down, but was surprised how much they did eat in the course of a week. They’d have cleared it good enough to cultivate in another week I think.
I took the sheep off before then, and the RC is now shooting from the crown, and also from many of the nodes on the trampled stems. I’m currently trying to resist the temptation to put lambs back on it too soon.
