The ground

Grazing ground in Herefordshire, and what it needs.

Red sandstone soils that grow grass well, with heavier ground in the river valleys and low-lying land. A long growing season means paddocks can need topping more than once through the summer.

A long growing season means paddocks can need topping more than once. Spring work waits on the clay drying out; weed spraying is best caught while docks and thistles are growing strongly.
