Last of a 115 ha field of ⁦Germinal⁩ AberGain Tetraploid Ryegrass succumbing to the ⁦Shelbourne Reynolds⁩ stripper headers in deepest #Hampshire Still the biggest variety in the UK and Ireland. Weather perfect. Hopefully mown and baled up before it breaks. 🤞

Really exciting project, the outcomes could be groundbreaking for the industry. Harnessing the power of legumes to create a truly sustainable system.
