I'd sure be happy with anything close to that. I didn't fertilize this, but I did spray a lot of it. Any idea what the dormant Bermuda might be nutritionally?kenny thomas":2akvu1jw said:My stockpile fescue tested 17.8% on underutilized and 19.7 on what I spread Urea.

Yes I agree, I wasn't paying attention to the number of cattle you have.Banjo":5piz9p3n said:For a dozen cows.....maybe a 1/4 of an acre to no more than 1/2 an acre per day. That is about the rest of the winter...otherwise you might get a months worth maybe.

2. Estimate how much of that the cows will eat i.e. 40% or 800lbs/ac x 28 ac = 22,400lbs
3. Estimate daily intake i.e. 2-3% body weight (1400lbs [email protected]% x 12 head= 420lbs daily)
total available forage/daily intake of the herd=grazing days
