Sward Management

Hybrid ryegrasses grow at soil temperatures as low as 5-6oC. This lower temperature growth means the grasses get away earlier in the spring
and grow later in the autumn extending the growing season and therefore production of the ley. This also allows the sowing window for Ultra Hybrid to be lengthened.
