For the livestock farmer, the quality of the grazing pasture is absolutely vital, so a good pasture topper is essential. It is important that the grass is able to thrive and to produce the maximum amount of plant matter in order to properly feed the herd.

If it is allowed to go to seed, the plant will divert its energies towards stem and seed growth instead of producing edible leaves and shoots. Reduced growth can also be a result of uneven grazing.
Any pasture that has gone to seed can be revived with just one pass from a topper. This will reinvigorate the growth of the pasture and soon provide more and better grazing for the herd. Toppers can also be used for weed control. Topping them before they go to seed can help prevent the spread of weeds. This may only be a partial solution, but it can be useful in farming environments where chemical use is unwelcome or not possible, such as on organic farms.
