Sward Master

Sward Master
Five year plus intensive grazing mixture (early bite)

(Average heading date 1st June)

Sward Master is a long term intensive grazing mixture which has the capability of producing a cut of silage if required.

It is made up of mainly diploid perennial ryegrass, which will create a dense sward for persistency under intensive grazing.

The intermediate perennial ryegrass content will produce early spring growth for an early bite.

77% of the PRG used are ‘Aber’ high sugar grasses (HSG) meaning there is extra energy in the form of sugar available to the rumen microbes. This in turn utilises more available protein from the grass and clover resulting in increased meat or milk production from home grown forage.

A small to medium white clover blend is used to withstand intensive grazing and will also increase palatability and protein levels. It also has the ability to fix nitrogen.
