Here is a feed analysis for cool season grasses but if Bahia is treated as a lawn, weekly mowing, the feed analysis will be just as high. http://www.biopacr.com/lawn-clipping-si ... -analysis/

This stuff looks useful to apply to my lawn this spring!

I personally wouldn't feed fresh clippings unless I knew the application history. IF the same lawn clippings were ensiled, I have fed them, several hundred tons in fact. :cboy: I'm a commercial pesticide applicator and owner of my 31 year old lawn care company, among another businesses as...

Here's a great map of Oleander distribution in the US. Nasty stuff.

Lawn pesticide residue salts are rinsed from the leaves due to heavy irrigation practices of homeowners. Pesticides that absorb into the leaves are metabolized by the plant degrading the active ingredient. The ensiling process does not discriminate between biomass varieties, chopped corn...

I'd like to see how many cattle feeders have access to fresh lawn clipping from commercial mowing companies during the summer months? How do you feed them, in a ration or by themselves., how much waste is there? :?:

Does anyone live in an area where a local company makes silage bag film? Raven Industries for example make the bag material for farm bags, Up North Plastics makes Ag BAg. I'm looking forthe names of all the other companies that may be able to custom make a specific size for my own equipment.

I've put up grass silage in 1000 lb bags. If temp get too cold and they freeze solid, how would I feed it? Do I need something to break it into bite size pcs. for cattle??

If you are a red head...I want to rub your hair for good luck.

The University of Wyoming conducted a very successful lawn clipping silage trial this spring. The Yearlings all gained the same as the conventional feed pen yearlings. Would you try it for 30 days if you could find some?

Kentucky bluegrass. @ 1 ton every week of clippings. I mow for 7 months.

Let me add the fact that a feed anlysis of some silage I Made said the Nitrogen content was like 10,000 ppm. A CSU report suggested that ensiled grass would have 50% less due to the ensiling process. That might mean my sample actually only has 5000ppm. What is a safe range...anyone know.

I have a small acreage where i convert it a pasture. I still water and fertilize it so it grows like made. I want to make silage from it. Do i need to worry about nitrate poisoning if i make silage.
