Animals and sedge rushes

Does anything actively eat rushes?

I looked at a patch of land that has many many rushes, but it's at a very good price if I can come up with a business plan to make it cover it's costs...

Sheep breeds or coos or even goats all suggestions welcome...

Been discussed recently linky
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
