💫A privilege to be joined by both James & Nicky🍀 Especially as it was during my placement year at #Teagasc helping Nicky with his Ph.D. data collection that my love for grassland was firmly established! Listen in to hear all things #clover related and our farmer Q&A at the end!
Our latest podcast is dedicated to #clover establishment and management🍀🌱
@BSAS_org & AHDB @EvansKatie215 arranged a catch-up with @teagasc @nicholaslbyrne & @JamesADrummond to get their expert tips and real-life stories around clover.

Link to write up we did for @AHDB_BeefLamb on work with @davidpcross B&L Monitor Fm last season. Main take home for me was definitely the impact of seed mix selection on livestock performance & profitability @HelenMathieu @Leah_Shanks1
In 2022, AHDB commissioned @ADASGroup to conduct a #GS4 assessment on one of our B&L Monitor Farms. The trial assessed the performance of 3 different GS4 mixes under grazing management.

Grass ME values ranged from 11.0 to 12.4 last week.
Growth rates on individual farms remain extremely variable, but soil moisture readings indicate ground conditions should be improving after a slightly drier week for most @TheAHDB @HybuCigCymru @qmscotland

We have introduced ‘Value of Grass’ calculations for 2023. These figures can act as a guide to what animal performance could be expected depending on the change in grass metabolisable energy values each week. @TheAHDB @HybuCigCymru @qmscotland
