Diamond Red Clover Silage
- Intensive silage mixture, designed for 3-4 years
- Moira and Fintona are among the highest performing ryegrass varieties under silage Index on the 2022 Pasture Profit Index
- Huge potential to reduce chemical N in the produced of winter fodder
- Will continue as a normal grass sward with white clover afterwards
- White clover will fill spaces created by red clover dying out
- Produces high protein and high digestibility silage
- Can be grazed, but important not to over graze red clover
- Stock and machinery damage to sward can shorten lifespan of red clover – target field operations in dry spell
- Conservation of dry crop is more critical with a high clover sward – target lighter crops that are easier to wilt
- Clover will only provide Nitrogen to the sward. Other mineral requirements, especially P and K will need to be applied to match herbage off take
- Clover is heavier and more free flowing seed than grass seed, so it is important to calibrate seed drills before sowing
Diamond Red Clover Grazing – N Saver
- High Clover mixture allowing nitrogen saving once established
- AstonEnergy is a 5 star grazing variety, AstonConqueror is a 4 star grazing variety – Better grazouts promotes clover development
- Astonenergy is the highest quality variety on the 2022 Pasture Profit Index – sward quality drive animal performance
- Tested in Teagasc Solohead with zero chemical Nitrogen after seeding, achieving high DM yield
- Red Clover quickly develops produces Nitrogen in the year of sowing
- Can be grazed but intensive grazing will shorten lifespan of red clover
- White clover will fill spaces created by red clover dying out
- Chieftain and Crusader white clover are the most common white clovers used in Ireland tried and tested across all soil types
