[QUOTE="Redhides, post: 1126309, member: 20308"] Bushhog it in May and graze the heck out of it. Cows will eat it when it's young and green. It's not their favorite but they'll eat it. It hates hoof pressure and lime. I have about a 100 acres of it and it's always in the areas where the cows don't loaf. Away from the water tank and shade, on high hills with thin top soil. I've found that a gritty annual like pearl millet or iron clay cowpeas will compete well with it, even without the lime. In the fall, bushhog it again, toss out some lime, and broadcast some ryegrass. Use it as your dry lot come winter, park your cows there and unroll your favorite grass hay. I've turned around a lot of ground that way. [/QUOTE]
