Average grass growth rate across the country this week is a staggering 75kg/day, over 20kg/day higher than the 10-year average. This is great news as it gives farmers lots of options heading into autumn as it is so easy to build up a cover of grass. The target average farm cover for this week is to be between 750kg and 1,000kg/ha, or between 300kg and 330kg/cow, depending on stocking rate.
