Grange - Grass Growth Rates

 

Update 28th Sept 2010

  • Grass growth rates for the past 9 years (2001-2009) and 2010, to date, are shown in the Chart below. 
  • These grass growth data are derived from plots which are harvested at the end of a 4-week re-growth cycle and the 2010 data are depicted in red.
  • Actual grass growth rate for the 4-week period ending Sept 28th was 34 kg DM/ha/day (red line on graph below). These grass growth rates exceed the long-term average, and, indeed, growth rates since early August have exceeded the long-term average.
