[QUOTE="Bury the Trash, post: 6766838, member: 12099"] look at my avatar picture, that lucerne Was hammered every winter it was here . everything gets hammered here by sheep from December to April. even arable crops if im that desperate or they are too thick. ime it wasnt difficult to grow slow to establish yes and ,modest arable crop growing type ability will help possibly. and the growing season here is the same for all the plants we grow ;) BTW i grow Chicory as well, that lasts about 3 years , mind you we let a piece go to seed so it will be interesting to see if any of that regenerates its self. i suspect not as the comp. will be keen in that prg wc ley. every time we reseed as an arable break nowadays we chuck some chicory in the mix, it establishes with the rest of the types, then when its gone its gone, its not expensive to do , it adds some diversity, brings up minerals for the stock and sends its tap root down to topsoil for us instead so saves us using diesel and tractor hours and metal wear and less money tied up in yet another wasty implement. Actually I've seen Lucerne grown in Australia btw, is was in a river valley, (not much water in that river its true)deep soil, but irrigated and cut six times a season. could probably have cut mine 4 times but i grazed it more than conserved it actually , something that its undersold for ir. and i don't irrigate.
