Our February issue takes a closer look at grassland and forage, ahead of the much-anticipated spring. We cover all aspects of grassland and forage production, from soil health and fertility through to reseeding, variety selection and silage making.

Breeding and fertility also feature in this issue with a look at the latest thinking and approaches to optimise reproductive efficiency and calving, as well as improving the rate of genetic gain in UK herds.

We also have our usual mix of articles, covering all aspects of herd management. And we introduce the third of our three new female columnists who will be sharing their thoughts with readers in 2025.
