    Hi there, I was hoping to get some advice from experienced farmers that own wetter/rough land. Have a sheep farm and just took the flock out of the rough winter grazed lands adjacent to the river. Overall there's only small areas of surface water and very quickly graduates into dryer rougher rushier land with sweeter(rank after the summer growth) grasses interdespersed. There is I high proportion of litter left over (there is every year) and I'd like to get this cleaned up as much as possible by suitable followers. The farm manger is fairly old so follower type should be as quiet and manageable as possible. Could anyone reccomend a follower type and supplementation considerations? Fensing is stockproof for cattle/sheep. Thanks
