Herbal leys or ‘species rich’ mixtures are becoming more popular as growers look to reduce the cost of bought in Nitrogen fertilisers and high protein feeds. They are far more management intensive and do require a change in mindset away from the easily managed perennial ryegrass swards that currently dominate our industry. Key benefits include:
• High level of production
• High protein forage
• More minerals and a natural wormer in the forage
• Deeper rooting plants & therefore more drought tolerant
• No artificical Nitrogen requirement
• Improved soil structure
• Improved bio-diversity
