Getting paddocks with surplus grass cut as soon as possible and back into the rotation is very important
This week, we saw a big jump in grass growth across the country.
For many, this has led to pre-grazing covers getting ahead of target.
The average pre-grazing cover for farms on PastureBase was 1,649kg DM/ha.
Regardless of how good the quality is, once pre-grazing covers have gone over 1,500kg DM/ha, graze-outs will suffer.
Strong paddocks
Up to now, wet conditions had made it very difficult to cut paddocks that had gone strong, which means there are now a lot of strong paddocks with surplus grass ready to cut.
