This question is regarding a 20 acre hay field of tall fescue and white clover. Location: Northern AL Applied fertilizer to specs in April. Baled 129 rolls of hay end of May. Is there a need to hit it again with fertilizer prior to second cut? Looking foward to reading your responses. Thanks

We have a set of calves ranging from 4-6 months of age. Currently they are still with their mothers. We are thinking about pulling those that are not quite six months old yet and putting them on pasture and free-choice minerals. The pasture is in excellent condition and can sustain them...

Been there done that! We ended up having to hire an expert to get rid of the problem. My local extension agent introduced me to a guy who specializes in wildlife pests. He went in and tore down the damn and set traps. He has trapped over 20 beaver since he first started. There's been 3-4...

Dido! I just priced some in my area and it's running $143.75 per 25lb bag...YIKES!

I have a small Blk Angus herd in northern AL; they are on good fescue/clover pasture. They receive free-choice mineral (Copperhead) and are maintaining very well. My question is do I need to supplement what they are getting with a tub. I've on occassion put out a couple of Stimulyx tubs and...

Im in northern AL and the hay is very plentiful; can't see why it would be expensive. In fact...I've seen adds for this year's hay going for as little as $18-20 per 5x5 roll. bks

Probably seeing slow growth because Fescue should be planted Sept-Nov (ideally). Doubt if it will survive in the hot temps.

Heat works wonders!!!!!

First time considering purchasing new tractor off the lot. I was wondering if tractor sales work similar to auto sales? Does the salesperson typically negoiate the sales price or is it a no-haggling type of deal? Looking forward to reading your responses. BKS

What type of feed would you recommend??

I have several Black Angus calves that I plan to sell this spring. I'm considering weaning within the next few weeks; the youngest calve will be 3 1/2 months old if I start weaning by end of month Dec. What are the pros and cons of such early weaning? I'm considering this action mainly to...

I'm not sure I have this posted in the right area but I will give it a shot anyway. We have a 3 y/o Black Angus cow that calved in mid Sept 08; since then we noticed that she's lost quite a bit of body conditioning...she's eating plenty of hay and seems healthy otherwise. She's raising a good...

Are the numbers posted per pound or per head?

I'm getting ready to establish brand new pasture. I've noticed a big price difference in MaxQ and plain Ky 31. Is is worth the extra cost to go with MaXQ? I'm looking foward to reading your repliest. Thanks
