The Old Showground is designated as permanent pasture, featuring a thriving mix of Timothy, White Clover, Cocksfoot, and Rye Grass. Timothy and Rye Grass offer dense, nutritious growth, while Cocksfoot adds resilience. White Clover enriches the soil by fixing nitrogen, ensuring a healthy and sustainable grazing environment.
A perennial grass native to Europe and Asia, known for its tall stems, cylindrical flower heads, and soft green leaves. Grown for hay and forage due to its high nutritional value and palatability for livestock.
A hardy perennial grass with dense tufts and tall growth, valued for high yield and nutrition. Its broad leaves and coarse texture make it ideal for grazing and hay, even in dry or shaded conditions.
A low-growing perennial legume with creeping stems and trifoliate leaves. Its white flowers attract pollinators, and its nitrogen-fixing ability improves soil, making it ideal for pastures.
A hardy, fast-growing grass with dense growth and deep roots that improve soil. It withstands heavy foot traffic and thrives in cool climates, making it ideal for grazing and turf.
In-lamb ewes prior to lambing providing them with a steady supply of nutritious forage, essential for supporting their increased energy needs. The mix of Timothy, White Clover, Cocksfoot, and Rye Grass ensures a balanced diet, promotes good health, and helps maintain strong body condition, which is vital for successful lambing and healthy lamb development.
