We have noticed that the cows that grazed standing native as heifers, are better grazers than the older cows, but the newest generation are better yet. It is pretty interesting to see the discussion from around the board.
I think type is important, but I wonder if you can't transplant a grazing teacher from one group of cows, into an unseasoned group and gain some advantage.
I watched or read (can't remember which :? ) a few yrs ago about teaching cattle to eat weeds, and thats how they did it, by having a "teacher" and the rest would follow suit
If there is an art to teaching cattle to eat weeds, does it take similar talent for people to smoke weed? Somehow this question lingers even though I have tried to bannish the thought. :? :???:
I'm not sure Soap.... that would fall perhaps in the category for you "older folks" that went to school in the 70's? :wink:
