  • Can be cut and grazed as required

 

LONG SEASON is designed to provide high spring and late season growth, increasing production at the times of year when pasture is the most valuable, replacing expensive conserved feed.

 

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 closed off for one cut of silage and then re-grazed for the rest of the season.

 

Alternatively, silage can be cut throughout the year with the potential for four cuts of top quality grass, with the 1st cut taken in early May. LONG SEASON increases options for farmers to utilise grass from the start of the growing season.

 

Early spring grazing can be followed by two high quality silage cuts and aftermath grazing or season long grazing.
