Key benefits
- Flexible, persistent, long-term ley
- Can be cut and grazed as required
- Appropriate for set stocking situations
- Used to extend the grazing season and help maximise the animal-harvested feed on farm
LONG SEASON is designed to provide spring and autumn growth, shortening winter housing time and lowering the amount of conserved feed required.
If early grazing is a priority on farm, it is an ideal sward to turn stock into at the start of the year, giving other fields a chance to get started. When grass supplies become more plentiful elsewhere on the farm, LONG SEASON can be cut for silage and then re-grazed for the rest of the season. If early grazing is a priority, it can be followed by two high quality silage cuts and aftermath grazing or season long grazing.
Alternatively, silage can be cut throughout the year with the potential for four cuts of top quality grass, with the first cut taken in early May. LONG SEASON increases options for farmers to utilise grass from the start of the growing season.
