I need some advice on a situation I'm in here in Western Kentucky. We have about 50 acres that need to be seeded into hay. One field is about 15 acres right at the house that has been row cropped as long as I remember, but has developed 3 or 4 pretty substantial ditches in it that if we just...

We have a 40 acre hay field that has been over run by Johnson Grass. I had it sprayed by our the guy that farms our row crop ground, we are going to have him plant it in corn next year, then sow it down in the fall. The hay field was primarily KY-31 fescue, but I am going to going to go back...

I'm not real worried about making good neighbors, pretty much all my neighbors are family, one of whom I will be getting the litter from. I have just be trying to find what variety I need to sow/sprig.

Stepper, thanks for the info. Deer are not usually a problem around this farms, there are only about 5 or 6 of us that hunt them. We usually do a pretty good job of keeping the deer population down. I had already been thinking about Bermudagrass, but I need some more inforamation about...

I am looking at putting about 15-17 acres of our farm that have previously been in row crop production into hay production next year. We are located in extreme Western Kentucky. The ground is rolling and ranges from areas that are highly erodible to some that are only slightly erodible. I...

I saw an article in the latest Hay and Forage Grower magazine about Teff Grass. Does anyone here have any experience with Teff or know where I can get in contact with someone who has some expreience. It looks like it could be a good crop for our crop rotation. Thanks Greg

Crowder, I think I'm going to go by our county FSA office the first part of next week for some other things. Thanks for the heads up on the rnovation program. Hopefully I'll join you Welfare Boys and get some help. I want to sow this down to stop some erosion, plus it will give me some more...

I should have been more clear. I'm planning on doing some renovation to the hay ground we already have. I'm thinking about sowing down some rolling ground that is currently being row cropped. I'm wondering what to sow in these new hay fields. Thanks

I'm looking at diffrent crops to plant for hay in Western Kentucky. Our hay fields are just mixed grasses, mostly fescue with some clover and timothy mixed in. I'm trying to find some crops that will produce higher yields on our fields. Will probably be fertilized with 2.5-3 tons/ac of...
