[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1261171, member: 17304"] If your looking for summer grazing with corn, IMO open pollinated varieties like Hickory King is better suited. It will grow well without fertilize or not much, that is if you plow the ground first. Plow, disk, and plant. no need for herbicides because most likely you are going to have crabgrass, pigweed, morning glory and johnsongrass as your weeds. So along with the corn your are going to have a buffet of weeds the cattle like. The reason guys plant bin run RR corn is so they can spray it for weeds plus they already have it and its cheap. But in a grazing scenario, most of these weeds that come up will be a benefit for grazing. [/QUOTE]
