Thanks for the replies Leon & John,
The reason I asked the question was that I had read that endophytes had been
removed from the new varieties of fescue for cow health reasons and yet some
southern NSW farmers are glyphosating large areas of Advance fescue because
they have been told that its the endophyte that's making the plants
unpalatable to the stock and if they can get the cows to eat it they go
crazy busting though fences etc.)
I Guess that when they spray the fescue they will kill the problem ryegrass
also and solve their problem anyway....unless they drill the same ryegrass
back in !!!!
Cheers,
