Spring grass year-round

Instead of sitting at my desk and writing, I’ve been experimenting with our sprouted barley from our T&T FastGrass fodder shed.

Despite the fact we’ve had the wettest winter and spring in decades and the paddocks are lush, our horses soon took to the feed.

Once the summer dries off the paddocks it’s going to be great to offer this fresh green pick to our horses, sheep and cattle.

At first we mixed it in with the horses’ normal dry feed and they ate around the sprouts but by day three as you can see Jess was chomping into the fodder, roots and all. It’s a great source of protein for horses and helps keep their gut healthy.
