[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 751899, member: 637"] I have no cattle here at the present to graze it down. I am planning on bringing in some heifers to AI, in a few weeks, and the boss says I cannot let the cows in the hayfield. This is where my anger management control classes are coming helping me so much. :) So, I am trying to think of a way that I can make use of the very beautiful field of green Orchard grass and clover that is going to waste again if I don't do something about it. Last year we only got one overly dead seed head cutting with very dormant grass cutting, and one thin cutting in late summer. A few summers before when things were different, we got three lush timmed cuttings, and two of the cuttings produced over 40 bales on 10 acres of land. So we got either close to 100 bales off of that one field that year, or more. I do not know what we got off of it the third time. But it was not like the first two times because of the dormacy of the grass. This field of grass takes care of the cattle when it is taken care of. For some reason, it is a fight. The first cutting didn't come till almost the 1st of July. The rain has stopped and the sun is awfully strong to let the grass jump back to peak out by then. I think I write about it each year, and this may be my last!!! :nod: Chuckie [/QUOTE]
