It is. I completely over rested/deferred a paddock here as I really didn't know if I'd get my plan "right"well talking fields and rests - ive thrown my non breeding ewelambs back onto the paddock the ewes came off - not ideal as theyll take it lower than id like BUT converlesy it will also have the longest rest - and as grass got away last time from me im seeing what the impact will be - but knowing what time overgrazing in this changeover period is seemingly difficult.
Poor old paddock, it was the one I grew some peas in a few years ago and it looks very acidic and tasteless. I'm going to put about 6 tonnes of lime on it and covercrop it in the spring.
But what's in there will fill them up and give me time to get the plan sorted out going forward
