Growing season matrix · Gol, 60.7°N

The year, as the light sets it

The curve is computed day length for latitude 60.7008°N — astronomy, not a forecast. The coloured bands are typical timing in Hallingdal; the real season is set by snowmelt and heat sum in the year it happens.

June

18 h 58 min mean daylight

First cutFørsteslått

Cut on heading, in the second half of June. This is the decision the whole year turns on: cut earlier for a leafier, more digestible forage and less of it, later for bulk and more stem. It is taken against the weather in the week it happens.

Typically harvested

  • First-cut timothy silage
  • Meadow fescue and timothy ley
  • Red clover and grass mix
  • Barn-dried hay

Typically sown

  • First-cut timothy silage

Core agricultural divisions

Four things this holding actually does

Cultivation under the activity code it has filed, the soil work that keeps that code meaningful in twenty years, the supply side that moves the crop, and the paperwork that has to travel with it.

01

Annual forage crop cultivation

NACE 01.190 — the registered primary activity

Timothy, meadow fescue and clover leys, green-fodder oats and autumn brassicas, grown on ground that spends five months of the year under snow.

See the crop catalogue
02

Soil management and ley rotation

Keeping the ground able to grow the next crop

Reseeding on rotation, clover fixing its own nitrogen, catch crops holding cover through the wet autumn weeks, and manure going back where it came from.

How the ground is worked
03

B2B bulk supply and farm logistics

Business buyers, wrapped bales, agreed loads

Wrapped round bales sold in bulk to livestock holdings, feed buyers and agricultural traders — collected from the farm at Gol or delivered by arrangement.

Regulatory framework and documentation

What actually governs the crop, and who enforces it

Norwegian feed and plant-health rules, the documentation that travels with a load, and a direct answer on organic status: not certified, not claimed.

Annual crops & yields

What comes off these fields

Forage, in bulk, to business buyers. Every crop below is grown under the registered activity code — and every one of them is described without a yield figure, because the figure that matters comes from the analysis of the batch you are actually buying.

Grass forageNACE 01.190

First-cut timothy silage

Phleum pratense · Førsteslått timoteisurfôr

The backbone of a Norwegian ration: timothy cut at heading gives a long-fibre, palatable roughage that ruminants sort well. Cut date decides everything — earlier means leafier and more digestible, later means bulk.

Sown in May, Jun. Harvested in Jun, Jul.

Harvest
Mid-June to early July, cut on heading

Grass forageNACE 01.190

Second-cut leafy silage

Phleum pratense × Festuca pratensis · Andreslått

Softer and leafier than first cut, with less stem. Buyers who need a more concentrated forage for young stock or high-yielding animals usually want this one, and it is the cut most often short.

Sown in no month — it is a standing crop. Harvested in Aug, Sep.

Harvest
August, weather permitting

Grass forageNACE 01.190

Meadow fescue and timothy ley

Festuca pratensis, Phleum pratense · Engsvingel- og timoteieng

Meadow fescue fills the sward where timothy thins after cutting, so the mix holds up over more seasons and regrows faster after the first cut. A steadier, denser bale than pure timothy.

Sown in May, Jun, Jul. Harvested in Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep.

Harvest
Two cuts, mid-June and August
Supplied as
Round bales, wrapped
Crop details
Legume forageNACE 01.190

Red clover and grass mix

Trifolium pratense · Raudkløver i blanding

Clover fixes its own nitrogen out of the air, so the ley needs less bought fertiliser and the forage comes back richer in protein than pure grass. It is the single most useful thing that can be done to a Norwegian ley.

Sown in May, Jun. Harvested in Jun, Jul, Aug.

Plain statements

Three things this site does not claim

Not modesty — precision. Each of these is a claim an agricultural supplier could easily make on a website and could not stand behind in a dispute.

Not certified organic

Stake Gunhild does not hold, and does not claim, organic certification. In Norway organic status is certified only by Debio; any crop sold as organic would carry a Debio control number, and none is published here because none has been issued.

No health or medicinal claim

Forage is animal feed. Stake Gunhild makes no human or animal health claim of any kind, sells no medicinal, therapeutic or herbal preparation, and grows no cannabis, hemp or other controlled plant.

No published yield or feed figures

Feed value varies by field, cut, weather and storage. Any figure that matters commercially comes from a laboratory analysis of the actual batch, quoted with its method and date — never from a table on a website.

B2B bulk order & supply request

Tell us what you need and when

Crop, rough volume, and whether you are collecting from Gol or want it delivered. We answer against what is actually in store — which is the only answer worth having.

Before you send this

A short, plain notice about what happens to what you type. The full version is in the privacy policy.

Why we need it
To answer your enquiry about buying forage in bulk, and to quote against what is actually in store.
Legal basis
GDPR Article 6(1)(b) — steps taken at your request before entering into a contract.
How long we keep it
Kept for 24 months from your last message, then deleted.
Who else sees it
Nobody outside the holding, other than the hosting provider that runs the server.
What is recorded in the backgroundshow

  • A keyed hash of your IP address

    Rate limiting, so the form cannot be used to flood the mailbox.

    Linked to your submission — the hash is stored on the row. · Deleted with the submission.

    The raw IP address is never written to the database. What is stored is a SHA-256 hash keyed with the organisation number, which counts requests and identifies nobody afterwards.

  • Web-server log lines

    Diagnosing faults and detecting abuse of the server itself.

    Not linked to a submission. · 30 days, then rotated away.

    The request line, status and timestamp, as any web server records them. This is the processing most privacy policies quietly omit.

  • The version of the notice you were shown

    So that, in a dispute, it is possible to establish what you were actually told at the time.

    Linked to your submission. · Deleted with the submission.

    Stored alongside which GDPR Article the row rests on, rather than a consent flag that would misdescribe the basis.

You can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, and object to the processing under Article 21 — write to the address on the contact page and it will be acted on. There is no consent tick-box on this form: consent is a different legal basis, and one demanded as the price of submitting would not be freely given under Article 7(4).Notice version 2026-08-31

A band, not a commitment either way. What is actually available is confirmed against store when we answer.

Business enquiries only. Stake Gunhild does not sell to consumers or in retail quantities.

How an enquiry is handled

  1. 1You send crop, volume band and timing. Nothing is committed by either side at this point.
  2. 2We check it against what is in store and answer with what exists — including “not this season”, when that is the answer.
  3. 3Volume, price, collection or delivery and documentation are agreed in writing before anything moves.

Stake Gunhild is a registered sole proprietorship (enkeltpersonforetak) supplying agricultural crop material in bulk to businesses. It sells to farms, feed producers and agricultural buyers — not to consumers, and not in retail quantities.

Nothing here is veterinary, nutritional or agronomic advice for a specific herd or field. Feed rations and fertiliser plans must be set by your own adviser against your own analyses.
