[QUOTE="yeoldebarn, post: 9196742, member: 184602"] I'm wondering if anyone else in West Wales has laburnum in their hedgerows, and if so have you ever had a problem with your stock getting ill? I have a massive laburnum hedge dividing my fields, I've been laying it this winter as it hadn't been managed for decades and was overstood and gappy. I'll be making hay off of these fields and have horses grazing them, do I need to worry about them eating the hedge or the poisonous seed pods getting baled up in the hay? Apparently it is everywhere in this part of the country so you would think there would be more talk of it if people's stock were getting sick. I still feel like it's an awful choice for an agricultural hedgerow though, I'm thinking of planting up with hawthorn either side to create a barrier so the animals can't get to it and electric off until it matures. Any thoughts much appreciated, ta! [/QUOTE]
