[QUOTE="Keepers, post: 7659572, member: 6535"] Last year we did rye, and then one field of rye/vetch mix and it really didn’t last long at all, they very quick going over it, regrowth would have been more than a bulky turnip type obviously but the cold wind across the cotswolds and then the snow sort of out a stop to that (n) I also question the palatability of forage rye? It seemed that every time I moved them onto the next block instead of rushing to graze the fresh crop like they did on rape/turnips/kale they would run across it to get to the margins and eat the crap grass first. And never looked very full on it, they did better once they had moved off and onto poor quality grass :scratchhead: [/QUOTE]
