Multispecies Ley

A 4-year herbal grazing mixture

  • Use: Mainly Grazing
  • Animal: Most Livestock
  • Available with Clover: Red Clover, White Clover & Other Legume
  • Length of use: Medium (4 - 7 Years)

LG Monarch Multispecies Ley mixture is scientifically formulated to consist of 40% productive forage grasses and 30% each of forage herbs and legumes. 

This four-year herbal ley mixture is ideal for most livestock including sheep and lambs, beef cattle and dairy young stock.

Multi-species herbal ley mixtures of this type require less inputs for potentially more production compared to a typical ryegrass ley whilst also being more beneficial to livestock.

LG Monarch Multispecies Ley mixture can dramatically increase liveweight gain in cattle and finish lambs even faster than clover rich pastures.

The protein rich legumes not only have nutritional benefits but also fix atmospheric nitrogen eliminating the need for fertiliser once established.

The herbs draw up minerals and trace elements which provide health benefits including reducing the parasitic burden in the gut.

This mixture also makes an ideal break-crop in an arable rotation enriching the organic content of the cycle and breaking pest and disease cycles. It can also break the blackgrass cycle and build up fertility for ensuing arable crops.

Strengths

  • Excellent production from minimum inputs

  • Excellent drought resistance and summer production

  • Meets requirements for Countryside Stewardship options OP4 (Multispecies Ley), GS4 (Legume and Herb Rich Swards) and OP5 (Undersown Cereal)
