[QUOTE="Northernlights, post: 8134296, member: 81490"] Dropped red clover in early seventies as could not get it to dry out fast enough to make hay for horses but now modern mower conditioners make it cure at the same rate as the grasses. Restarted it in 2008 during the last fertiliser price shock and now use it when rotation demands it in all new grass fields. Needs warmth to get going in spring and cutting is about a month later than normal but carries on well into autumn . No artificial N used now so delayed cutting is a small price to pay. . Cattle especially young ones do very well on the high protein wrapped silage. First spring barley after grass/red clover also gets no artificial N [/QUOTE]
