Grass Seed & Pasture
How often should I reseed my field?
Modern grass seed varieties in well maintained pasture are capable of a long and productive life. Perennial Ryegrass based seeds mixtures would have a typical commercial life of 6 – 8 years, however, if you experience winter poaching of drought kill a repair/patching or reseeding will be necessary. We recommend Badminton Paddock Herbal Grass Seed Mixture.
Do I need to apply fertilizer to my paddock?
To maximise grass growth fertilizer is generally required. This is best applied in the early spring and after every grazing or cutting of the pasture. Typically 100 – 150kg per acre of a medium nitrogen level compound fertilizer, with the inclusion of phosphate and potash i.e. 20-10-10 or 20-8-14 type is ideal.
