[QUOTE="steveR, post: 9177578, member: 66976"] Superb fodder, and stock love it... :) I graze ewes and lambs and then take One cut, then a light grazing into the back end for weaned lambs. This management is so far, keeping the ley going. Lost one ley after the ground lay wet and the Chiocory and plantain disappeared. Make sure the grass seeds are vigorous... * Fert is FYM best overwinter (or late Autumn). It will respond to a tickle of N, but not too much, as it defeats the object really! A HL is NOT a high productivity crop IMO. * Best to specify a sensible priced med term clover ley, and add a bit of chicory and plantain. Then if you lose the "Herbs" you still have a productive ley. Got a Welsh friend done just this. ;) [/QUOTE]
