Just interested in opinions and experience of those that have used these systems for making a 2-3 year Italian silage ley go another 2 years.
We have usually done full conventional reseeding after the 3rd year but have just bought a 6m Wox green master with front harrow for pasture renovation and wondered how people have got on with this type of system.
Have got on well with my 3m Moore adding in the past but it is a slower process.
