    Local cattleman's association

    Just do something productive. Our county's is a joke. I dont go. 75% of them dont own cattle. They meet and eat steak once a month and put on a rodeo once a year so they can dress up like cowboys.

    Seeking advice on bermuda vs bahia in a new pasture.

    Your ground seems about the same as mine. Bahia will do fine with little care. Sometimes you should just take what the good lord gives ya. With the added expenses and risk of drought I've never had the stomach to sprigg bermuda in my dirt with no way to irrigate. I guess its something you'll...

    Hay cost in Alabama

    Jo, I'm right here in west central GA. about 20 miles from Ala. I have noticed for years the hay seems to bring more over there.I usally pay 35 a 4x5 roll around here in Ga. And they seem to get 55 to 65 over there.All I could ever figure is they have more horse folks driving the price up.I wont...

    Bahia sprouts

    Yeah Jogeephus but it aint in style.Poor mans coastal.Nobody likes what the poor man has.I dont give a damn what it is as long as the cows eat it.Mine will pick bahia over just about anything else I have.

    Bahia sprouts

    Also bahia establishes pretty slow so be patient.The hotter the better.Mine is just now starting to grow good now that we've hit the mid 80's. It prolly wont be to it's full potential for a year or 2.I like to plant millet as a nurse crop the first year.I followed Jogeephus advice on that and it...

    Cylence and Ivomec.

    Got a few off schedule that I need to treat for flies and worm.Cylence and Ivomec pour on.I usally wait a month in between.Guess I'll do the Cylence first since they aint wormy.Whats the closest I could give them since I'm not supposed to do them at the same time?

    A dumb question

    Thanks for all the good advice.It is a great deal.The hunter did have more money than sense and he ruined some great coastal pastures to boot to plant"food plots".He was also the lady's son in law and there is a big "D" involved.Thats why its a legal deal.I'll try not to get shot.

    A dumb question

    Nah.Not much wheat grown here for harvest.Are you saying it will not be suitable for forage by then.I would get someone to cut it for hay but I cant touch it until June 1st due to legal issues(long story).I think it would be past the stage you cut wheat for hay by then.Am I gonna have basically...

    Coastal Bermuda Hay

    No the grass should be fine.If he had some malnurished he shoulda seen that coming.I dont think not fertilizing the coastal and the dead cows are related.Should check the protein in the hay though and supplement if needed.

    A dumb question

    I feel like this is a dumb question I should know the answer to but I dont.Ok,here's the deal.There is a lady down the road w/ 100 acre pasture she said I could use for free just to keep it down.1/2 is decent fescue and coastal.Thats fine.The other half was panted in wheat I presume in the fall...
