I have been hearing some people around our area (central texas) saying that they are gonna bale their bahiagrass this year. Does that make good hay as far as nutrition for the cows?

ADF includes cellulose, lignin, insoluble crude protein, and acid-insoluble ash. The higher the ADF the lower the digestibility.Muratic":39f6rhum said:I always thought ADF was an estimate of heat damage.
So if that is correct, the amount ADF is non-nutritional forage. Which would make it mold, must or dust. Or otherwise of no value.
Anyone help me out here? Its been a long time since ruminate nutrition 101 in college.
