For this week’s OviCast, we discuss grazing management with Dr Philip Creighton.

With the challenging conditions we discuss the grazing situation around the country, opening covers and the impact of delayed fertiliser application on grass growth.

Philip discusses managing supplies, targeted supplementation where supplies are tight and grazing strategies that can be implemented in the coming weeks. We also discuss fertiliser application rates when conditions allow for grazing and silage.

We finish up with Philip discussing having preventative measures in place for grass tetany due to the current grazing conditions.
