Anybody have any experience with this as a winter grazing option? Planning to notill it into hybrid sudan grass next week and see what happens it will grow until 18 degrees F. Sudan will grow back until first frost. Then I plan to turn out critters to graze it down. Jeff

I must have gotten the cheap poly wire it breaks all the time and drivwes me nuts. I will give Gallagher a try though. Jeff

When you see the horses biting on the neck of baby calves then you will no what the train wreck looks like. Horses dont like small things in the pasture with them. I have watched that wreck personally then I got to help cast the broken leg.

Becareful if you graze tehm close to a frost it can release cyanide out of the plant. Just a problem that one time for a couple hours. we usually pull them if we are expecting a frost and keep them off for a day or two. Jeff

What are you spraying? Do you want booms or going boomless? tank size depends on what you pulling or carring the sprayer with. Assuming you are spraying close to 10 gallons per acre a 200 gallon tank would let you make on trip out. Maybe 100 or 300 gallons would work better for you. I would...

What is the 800' golden rule? This is an interesting topic. How many padddocks do you have built at a time? I am trying to figure out the logistics when the farm work gets busy here. Jeff

If you put it up right the cows will eat it over alfalfa. We graze some and then plant some after wheat sowing so it is a little further behind in the spring for hay. Took 48 bales (5x6) off of 17 acres this spring with just one round of fertilizer in the fall. Heads were just coming out of...

The guy who bales for us has a New Holland and it makes good baled nice and tight cores have not been around the newer JD balers

I would look at triticale then you can graze it out or pull off and let it go to dough stage and bale 3 to 5 tons per acre. Jeff

wheat rye or triticale should work. my first question graze out completely or harvest any grain? Then wheat. Jeff

We ran goats for a nieghbor one summer. They love sumac and poison ivy. The biggest problem was it was dry and there feet are so small we could not get a good ground to shock them. If I ever get my own I will run a third wire as a ground around the pasture between the two hot ones. Used a...

I would like somewhere in the middle. Sedan grass was planted a month late and then replanted because of excess water. My fields that look the best are usaually not the best and my best ground the crop is yellowing some from being water logged.. Second cutting of Alfalfa is just getting cut...
