Taking the simple step of measure grass can lift your grass output across the platform, through data driven decisions in turn, pushing your efficiency in stock output.
Grass is one of the most valuable crops on UK farms. Are you making the most of it?
Regular measurement helps you:
• Reduce feed costs
• Improve animal performance
• Extend the grazing season
• Protect pasture health
Need advice on forage planning? Ask Germinal.
A valuable option given the variable forage quantities around the country. With grazing potential 100 days or so after sowing, this could be your answer to forage decisions heading into the autumn/ winter months.
Redstart is a fast-growing, cold-tolerant hybrid brassica that can be sown in August.
With vigorous regrowth and excellent late-season yields, it offers reliable grazing into January.

What if you could potentially double your beef output and cut your fertiliser bill?
For Dylan Jones, red clover made the difference:
100% self-efficient feeding system
No brought-in protein
Cattle throughput doubled
Lower input costs
