Grassland is an important element of livestock farming and requires a good pasture management to deliver efficient production systems.
Over time grass yield will decrease through weather, age of plant and intensive use. In the first couple of years up to 20% of the yield can be lost from the sward and after six years up to 40% of the pasture will
consist of unsown varieties.
Grazed grass is the most cost effective form of feed therefore a good reseeding program is the key to productivity and profitability.
