Summer grazing options

To provide farmers in the Facey Group grower region with new options for sustainable grazing and summer pasture species. Growers have identified the need for drought tolerant summer grazing options rather than traditional options more suited to higher rainfall zones. This trial aims to compare tedera to the more commonly used annual pasture species – annual ryegrass, serradella and subterranean clover to fill the summer and autumn feed gap.
