[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 9225288, member: 86168"] the idea is to have both. we get production from them, but on the land we pay £100 acre, £141 income before the actual farming income, looks quite attractive. In fairness, some of the 'old' grasses we ditched in favour of rye grasses, have been 'improved', since then. While the suggested mixes, include grasses long forgotten, but there is no statutory mix. Cocksfoot, timothy, and fesques, with a proportion of prg and festololiums, should satisfy the requirements. we have been farming them for a few years now, and hopefully got half an idea of managing them! although not sure how some of the herbs on the wetter ground will recover after this fecking wet winter, time will tell. the advantages of them, [B]if[/B] the claims are true, better soil health, no N, and medicinal benefits, they will be a near magical solution. My own view, they might be true, but only after a prolonged time, and we are not there yet. [/QUOTE]
