[QUOTE="harperfarmer, post: 8134258, member: 4455"] Fantastic crop. Am I right in thinking it needs to be allowed to flower at least once a year?! I had a ley in that produced some fantastic stuff, young cattle motored on it and fleshed as well as grew frame. I baled it mainly but did sell a cut to an AD plant. I could still see the next year where the silage trailers had run even though it was dry. Quite easy to damage the crown I think. I broke it up last year for wheat and it yielded the best of all the arable, likewise this year it is in spring barley and I'm sure it must be tapping into some residual soil N as it has established really well and looks the best of the spring crops. I'd be keen to grow more but have enough forage from fields entered into GS4 for stewardship so not really worth it. [/QUOTE]
