[QUOTE="Adrian, post: 5887394, member: 1340"] Hello, I put in some stubble turnips (tyfon) on stubble ground for hoggets to graze... The tyfon came very well - my issue is now is that the hog have zero interest in eating it... We have had incredibly mild weather here, so there is a lot of grass for picking in the stubble - so the hog are choosing to eat this inside. They have a good run back of stubble... I am losing the stubble back to the arable man come 1st March, so I want to try to get them to start eating the tyfon ASAP... I have closed them onto the tyfon area for a few hours for the last few days, to get them accustomed to it... My question is - could I close the hog into the area with the tyfon with only a minimum area for lieback, (forcing them to eat the turnips) Or could that bring issues with them only having the tyfon to eat? Any and all help or advise appreciated... Thanks... [/QUOTE]
