[QUOTE="neilo, post: 7950219, member: 348"] Do you particularly want extra silage? If not, what about putting maincrop turnips or swedes in earlier, giving a much bigger crop than stubble turnips next winter? If you want silage, an arable silage (not 'wholecrop', unless clamped) of SB and peas, avoiding the need to buy more fert? That would get established from the muck left behind the sheep, then fix it's own N. Either that or see if a neighbour is interested in some whole crop Spring Barley, or SB/Peas? Nothing much else will give much return before turnips will want to be in IMO. [/QUOTE]
