Roll well after sowing to ensure good soil/seed contact. Apply N, P & K as per soil test results and nitrates rules.

        After sowing: Monitor for pest attack and take mechanical action where necessary.

        Grazing: Graze the new reseeds frequently and at low covers (<1200 kg DM/ha) to assist in tillering and help create a dense sward.
