Anybody here from around the Gallatin Tn area?
The 4 months on the hay is about right unless we have a dry summer, the fescue can go dormant real quick in dry years. Some years hay may be fed in the summer some if you don't have enough pasture to rotate them around.tripleBfarms":3n4paqta said:I live an hour to the northwest and its about the same country and climate. We feed hay 4 months out of the year, with 2 acres per pair on Fescue pastures. The only thing is, if you live down here we " Farm" not "Ranch". You wont see too many cattle out this way with ear or naval. Mostly Black Angus, Hereford and Charlois. Mainly because Those sell the best, or at least in my markets anyway. Good Luck if you do decide to make a move.
