[QUOTE="Beefeater, post: 1560905, member: 25588"] Yes, put up right Reed Canary can make excellent hay. I reluctantly sold some to a horse owner a few years back - she’s called me up the past two years trying to get more. Getting it put up right usually requires a lot of luck as it prefers really wet areas. Even if the weather is right for cutting at the right stage the ground is likely too wet to get equipment in. Never tested mine, but judging by their poop it’s pretty good. My goats and sheep think it’s candy as well. If it has a lot of big stems it’s probably a bit mature and they’ll waste a lot. Put out a bale and you’ll be able to judge pretty quick what the quality is. [/QUOTE]
