Oats are tough as hell. You should get lots of regrowth, I'd leave it. Good luck getting it up.

Missouri, the Show Me state. In my best Tom Cruise impersonation "Show Me the Money!"

We've grown crested wheatgrass for seed production. Gave it 100 lbs of actual N/acre. Broadcast urea as late in the fall as you dare. A solid seeded stand gives us three years of production and is pretty well done. I think an old hay field would take a lot of $ to see a real improvement...

It's been terrible trying to make hay here. Hot and muggy with no wind, rain every second day or so. What keeps me sane is knowing a lot are in much worse shape than me this year. Have you considered custom feeding a bunch of cows George? Seems like there should be lots of demand in your...

The holistic guys will tell you there is no such thing as 'wasted' grass. I think though in a lush environment like Denny's and the types of grass he deals with you're doing the right thing to take it off for some cash flow. Probably have better pasture next year too.

I reckon our hay supply to our potato bin. You eat all the knobby, frozen and off types all winter and save the good ones, only to cover them back up with new crop, knobby potatoes. Around here if you don't have your hay laid in fairly early you'll likely be cursing either deep snow in the...

So I'm running my old loader tractor home last night to plug it in. It's darker than a goat's gut and I'm down to one headlight (I never work it in the dark). I'm staying on the road by watching the drivers side ditch, when I get to the approach across from our driveway I swings her right to...

As fun as it is to hunt elk, it's best to have to travel a ways to do it. Bale grazing is possible here mostly because my 'cow' hay usually isn't as good as what they can paw out for in the crop land. Swath grazing isn't impossible but you have to be selective on which field. Even where there...

westerwold will set seed the first season. My idea was to 'cut and graze' it. didn't spray it because of the hopper wreck and it did establish in the wild oat patches. It kept growing right to freeze up. Has a real waxy leaf that they'd go through snow for or graze the next spring I'm sure.

I sowed some westerwold ryegrass last spring. the stuff is so slow to get going that moderate grasshopper pressure killed it. Where it persisted in some low spots it came on tremendous in late summer and the cattle loved it. The westerwold sent up seed heads so I would guess the protein was...
