An analysis of the pasture growth pattern in a summerdry environment compared with the feed requirements of breeding hinds shows that the inclusion of a brassica crop can improve feed supply. The impacts of summer crops on productivity of hinds and calves in a summer dry climate was tested by comparing a single use forage rape and a specialist crop of chicory, plantain and clovers, and undersowing a forage crop with a perennial pasture mix to remove the need to re-establish pasture once the crop was used. Calf liveweight gain ranged from 424 to 455 g/d between birth and weaning in early March but did not differ significantly between the forage systems. Hind liveweight change was negatively related to the amount of forage on offer, with hinds beginning to lose weight when forage covers for each crop mix fell below about 1 850 kg DM/ha. As the amount of new pasture in the system increased after cropping the need for large areas of summer crops declined, suggesting constant re-evaluation of the role of summer crops in supplying extra forage to fill feed shortfalls is necessary.
