15 Acres Grazing

    Looking for some opinions.
    I have a 15 acre block of grazing ground currently divided into two 6 acre paddocks and one 3 acre paddock.
    At the minute I only have 10 2 year olds (approx. 2 yr olds) grazing this block. Grass is going ahead of demand at the minute but I'm afraid if I purchase a few more I might run out of grass later in the summer when growth drops off. Aim to sell these in October.
    What would ye think would be the right amount of animals (approx. year and halfs) to have on this block from say April to October.

    7 acres would have been reseeded last few years, other 8 is very old pasture. Cutting for silage is not really an option.

    Any advice or suggestions to maximise the use of this plot would be much appreciated. Thanks
