[QUOTE="BC, post: 109584, member: 67"] Ryegrass is an excellent forage and can help stop erosion. Unfortunately, it does its best growth when you need to prepare your ground for the permanent pasture. There is a dairy next to me that utilizes rotational grazing. I have watched and talked to the owner as he has taken Coastal Bermuda out and replaced it with Tifton 85. His advice was to not use ryegrass as a winter cover crop, but use cereal rye. His experience showed too much spring competition from ryegrass and delaying getting the bermuda sprigged. He also advised against overseeding the first year of bermuda establishment. After that he overseeds his paddocks. [/QUOTE]
