No disrespect ,I also have plenty but thankyou for your kind offer
You could say that, but from my point of view when they first started I was hesitant, now i could quite easily become organic on my grazing ground - not sure about it from a silage point of view (yield more so than quality)
It's done really well in dry times and if we were to analyse it as silage i would hazard a guess it's much better than ryegrass due to the the herbs in there (particularly the red clover though).
Then theres the fact that theres hardly any docks or thistles too which could come as an added bonus!
Plus the cows like it!
Plus it has had no fertiliser and we get paid £100 an acre under the grant scheme.
For me it's a no brainer and I'll be putting more of it in for sure....
I love this "i could quite easily become organic"
If i had a pound for every time i heard that...well
Docks have never been a real issue here, creeping thistles and rush, well
