[Benn]

evening all

Can anybody id this grass,
Got acre field that was reseeded a few years back ,with what was supposed to be a long term general grazing seed,
But all that grew was this grass.

Rough stalked meadow grass? It will come back quick enough in a ley,specially if not much N spread.

Fescue

 

[Benn]

Its a very fine grass and doesnt grow any taller then 9-12” high

Had a look online and the leaves look like fine fescue
Its gradually getting less productive ,
Theres no clover in the field at all would sowing some white clover in field help,?

 

[Kevtherev]

Is it due to be cut for hay?

 

[Benn]

Fields been cut and baled ,pic was patch that cant cut
It gets a cut hay every year and rest year gets a light graze in autumn and sheep lamb on it april.

 

[Kevtherev]

You could bare it off with sheep and scratch a bit of clover in to try.

 

[Benn]

Is it good grazing grass or better stick some other variety in there?

 

[Kevtherev]

Depends what sort of fescue it is really lots of varieties.
Not a bad grazer or for hay but you could add some ryegrass and maybe some Timothy to it with your white clover.
