Grazing of brassica winter forage crops returns large amounts of excreted nitrogen (N) back to the paddock during winter when risk of leaching is high. This experiment measured nitrate-N leaching below 60 cm of 132 and 173 kg N/ha following June grazing by dairy cows of swede/kale crops in 2008 and 2009. Application of DCD immediately after grazing plus 6 weeks later decreased leaching by 20-27% (significant at P
