Signpost: Baling, topping, or pre-mowing grass surplus — decisions for Dermot

I was tight with grass for the middle of July. I took out a few heavy covers for surplus bales. I was in two minds as to whether bale, top, or pre-mow the paddock.
I went with the baling option, and I am delighted that I went with this option. Grass has now returned to top quality, and with the bit of rain we got last week, growth has taken off again.
