[QUOTE="neilo, post: 6904118, member: 348"] The kiwi ‘experts’ are suggesting a lot higher (double?) levels than we usually use over here, and split over the growing season with the last application in a September/October. All UK agronomical advice has been based on growing sugar beet previously, rather than a fodder crop to feed in situ. A job to know if it made much difference here, given the season. Sheep were doing OK until those storms started rolling in on a weekly basis, which led to condition falling further and faster than I have ever seen, in late pregnancy.:( Not great, but at least the beet was there to eat. The stubble turnips here had been going backwards and disappearing since October, and the swedes that survived slugs & flea beetle last summer weren’t enough to keep many head. Hopefully next winter will be less extreme...... [/QUOTE]
