In this video Ted Green, founder member of the Ancient Tree Forum, talks about pollarding for tree hay. The video is divided into three sections: a short history, managing pollards and feeding tree hay to livestock. See www.agricology.co.uk for more.

Great video, this is a fascinating subject and it’s really interesting to know that it was a practise which was once widespread and carried out for hundreds/thousands of years!

I feed my cattle black locust leaves when grass is scarce. I heard its protein content is comperable to clover, another legume

I really like this video. Now I just need to figure out what trees the different animals here can eat.
