[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7679862, member: 63856"] What they didn't graze, they won't graze next time. That's really the "flaw" in the longer residuals regime when it comes to some grazing operations (like dairy, or lamb fattening) because the recoveries are so damn short (rotations so fast) that there is not much middle - there's ½ barely recovered and ½ crusty old stubble - whereas it could be all middle if shorter residuals/ adjusting recovery periods to match the last grazing could work better, much better we will aim to mix it up, eg shorter and longer recoveries, shorter and longer residuals - so that we aren't getting into any type of groove, as such it's really promising after a couple of years of wild, lax grazing to see the extra plant strength, but we need to compound that gain by shooting for maximum recovery time per year - this dictates the grazing depth must be "as deep as possible" [/QUOTE]
