    Perilla mint/purple mint toxicity

    We were in the dairy business till 2002 and have had beef since then. Plenty of mint in shady areas around edges of fields. We have never had an issue and it wasn't until a few years ago that I found out it was toxic. Undoubtedly they aren't bad about eating it. Hopefully your luck will...

    Rough hay field

    I have a piece of new ground that has established itself in Pensacola Bahia . The ground is very rough and needs plowing to smooth out so that I can start baling. What would be the best time of year to plow and harrow in order to minimize bahia stand loss?
