Growing monoculture swards for higher grass DM and grazing efficiency

Growing monoculture swards to enhance grass dry matter production, grazing utilisation, and spring grass supply on an 80 ha farm with clayey-loam soil in a temperate oceanic climate. The rotational grazing system supports specialist milk production at 2.9 LU/ha, achieving 5,500 liters per dairy animal annually over a 9.5-month grazing period. Improved grass utilisation increases productivity and farm efficiency while minimising costs.
