[QUOTE="Saltydawg, post: 389153, member: 2944"] Poplar trees are good. Fast growing and cows like to eat the tender parts when they can reach um. Careful if your planting locust as there is two varieties, Honeylocust and black locust. The Black locust can be toxic if an animal eats enough of it while the honeylocust are harmless. Locust makes GREAT firewood as well (one of the hardest woods found in north america, make sure you cut it green though or you'll swear someone started hitting your sawchain with a hammer trying to cut dried locust). My cows like the apple trees as well, especially in the fall when apples are dropping :lol: . Oak and cherry have never bothered my cows and i have a good bit of that around as well. Maples make good shade trees also. [/QUOTE]
