This red clover silage mixture is ideal for increasing protein production on-farm, reducing your bought-in feed requirement.
Aim for a first cut between red clover’s early flower bud and 50% flowering stage, with subsequent cuts at five to six weekly intervals. The sward also provides excellent aftermath grazing for finishing lambs.
Benefits Include:
- Improved protein content of silage
- Reduces the need for artificial nitrogen
- Outstanding grazing yield and quality
- Suitable for aftermath grazing, but avoid overgrazing

Multi Species Sward
Multi-species swards are a sustainable source of high-quality forage. As well as producing high yields of quality forage, sowing a multi-species can lead to significantly reduced N fertiliser requirement, increased animal performance and health.
Benefits Include:
• Superior sward performance
• Improved soil structure
• Increased drought tolerance
• Reduced effect of internal parasites
- A source of highly digestible, high protein forage and can maintain their high quality throughout the growing season.
- The inclusion of mineral-rich herbs provides a more balanced diet than grass alone, with species like chicory also providing some anthelminthic benefits to grazing livestock.
