How can we help your paddocks thrive?

From spring to late autumn, paddocks need maintenance for you to benefit the most from them. In the spring we suggest spring tine harrowing your paddocks, this relieves minor compaction, removes thatch which limits nutrients, oxygen and moisture from reaching the roots. With our 12ft harrows we have modified them to have levelling boards. The levelling boards help to remove poaching and level your paddocks back to a usable and safe condition. These are attached to our compact tractor weighing under 2 tonnes, leaving next to no in-print.

For grassland to thrive, it needs essential nutrients. These nutrients are Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P) and Potassium (K). Sulphur (So3) is also a required nutrient due to a reduction in our atmosphere. Sulphur enables the plant to uptake the maximum amount of Nitrogen available to it. Fertiliser is generally spread as a artificial pellet. With all paddocks they all see weeds from time to time, this can be from nettles to docks or ragwort to the deadly sycamore saplings. We are able to spray all weeds with our 10m sprayer mounted to our compact tractor with RTK guidance for accuracy down to 2.5cm.

Slitting is another service which aids growth of grass. Slitting punches holes into the grassland to aid with drainage and allowing oxygen to the roots. This also relieves minor compaction.

From time to time we end up with too much grass in our paddocks, or areas which the livestock tend not to eat. Our compact flail mower can bring those areas back down to a manageable height, whilst also creating a low input fertiliser. Once an area has been mown we suggest not grazing it for 7 days to allow the cutting to dry out allowing a reduced risk of cholic.
