Pasture Problems Addressed by Dr Hilgendorf

Dr Hilgendorf of Lincoln College spoke at Ashburton A P Association on pasture grasses. He praised perennial ryegrass for feed durability but noted limits for permanent pastures. He outlined cocksfoot and dogstail uses, white clover benefits, and sowing timing. He warned against overgeneral pastures and discussed grub control and seed rates.
