We also discuss fertiliser application rates when conditions allow for grazing and silage. \n \nWe finish up with Philip discussing having preventative measures in place for grass tetany due to the current grazing  conditions.\n \nFor more episodes from the OviCast podcast, visit the show page at:\nhttps://www.teagasc.ie/animals/sheep/ovicast-sheep-podcast","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/oD_Rx-7f25TwgsEFm0pibPTtCm5vUhaNcgX-NEnl7fI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzExNDAyLzE1OTE2/MTIwNjktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
