[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7548071, member: 86168"] we start mid march, 2 acres a time, so as not to get a disaster, we are not putting much in this year, but the 2 acre block we have in, sown early april, cows will be in tomorrow, it's at the just emerging stage, and threatened by the grass that's grown up ! That is unusual, should be 6 in by now, not 1cm, will leave, or spin some more on after. This had r-up washings on it, dry cows had poached it a bit, so chain harrow, spun on, roll and fail. We use all types of ways, r-up dd, cultivate and drill, or spin on, keep a serious look out for flea beetle, unless growing flat out, it can decimate it very quickly. For quick bulky protien, it's a cheap crop. There's a lot riding on our grass this summer, we think the grass looks good enough, to stay there, and not needing to rip up any for rape, fingers crossed. [/QUOTE]
