So sheep were successful for us last year despite the cover crop not being planted with feeding them at all in mind
Planning a lot more sheep this year, so am no considering what cover crop mixes would be best suited to feeding them better / for longer whilst still benefiting my soil through maximum diversity and biomass but still keeping it cheap
I've always avoided oats in covers but if grazing them they seem to be a logical choice ? Maybe an Oat, bean, pea, linseed based mix as I can farm save all them , maybe some millet ? and stubble turnips or radish
any suggestions ? @Pedders ?
