🚨new! Both grass-clover and 6-species #multispecies with lower nitrogen (125N) maintained grass yield and nutritive value relative to ryegrass (250N) under grazing systems (2 years) Grass & Forage Science: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gf…… #multispecies Wiley in research Brendan Horan

In a related paper from the same study, cow milk and milk solids were lower for PRG-250N, intermediate for PRGWC-125N and highest for MSS-125N. Milk and milk solids production per hectare from grazing were similar. journalofdairyscience.org/article/S0022-… Brendan Horan

We've compared PRG only vs PRG/WC vs Multispecies over 5 full production cycles in a dairy calf to beef system. For the first 4 years PRG/WC and MSS animal performance were comparable, this year we slaughtered the MSS cattle 5 weeks earlier than the PRG/WC cattle. ~longterm study
