I've taken on a field this year which I put ewes and lambs into last Saturday. I've the field sectioned into 4 to create what I hoped would be a nice rotation. The field has peaty soil and hasn't really been grazed properly the last couple of years.
As per the pictures the ewes are being very selective with their grazing. I'm going to take a forage sample and send it off for analysis, but has anyone any ideas as to why the ewes are being so selective? I've not grazed peaty land before.
