Let's Talk Dairy - Establishing grass-white clover swards


In this episode of the Let's Talk Dairy webinar series, Stuart Childs is joined by Dr. Deirdre Hennessy to give an overview of the establishment of grass-white clover into our swards.

Clover is an essential component to have on a farm. Clover offers us huge opportunities in reducing our fertilizer nitrogen and it also benefits us greatly in animal production. In Moorepark, on average there has been 20 kilograms of milk solids produced per cow annually. Also, Clover increases herbage production up to 1.5 DM/ha.
