When I talk to farmers some will say, and this is one thing that must be nailed down, that when red clover was being used some time ago there was a bit of swelling in some cattle. Is it the case here that other plant species in the sward are eliminating that problem? The aspect I am concerned with is the length of life of it in this regard. In addition, does it accept lime in the same way as the ordinary grass that we grow now?
