[QUOTE="dun, post: 824495, member: 34"] If it's already established and it wasn;t established with one of the novel or friendly endophyte fescues, it is toxic. How toxic is hard to tell. The stuff that makes it toxic is also what makes it persist with years of abuse. Ky31 has the toxic endophyte, it's in the seeds. How you deal with it is to dilute the fescue with orchard grass (if your cows will eat it) or most usually clover, red or white, your choice and depending on what does best on your farm. You don;t have to be overly concerned, jsut realize that it's something that needs to be dealt with. [/QUOTE]
