Cutting of Grass/Clover Swards, Red Clover or Lucerne – Nitrogen


Do not apply any nitrogen if a silage crop is taken from a grass/clover sward where the clover content needs to be maintained. Do not apply any fertiliser nitrogen for red clover or lucerne conservation.

Apply phosphate, potash and magnesium as recommended for pure grass swards.
