[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1490127, member: 17956"] The problem with where I live, is fescue is not productive enough for somebody to devote the time and resources to straight hay production. Some of your productive grasses from the south: improved varieties of Bermuda, red river crabgrass, etc. they just don't work here. My land is much more profitable for grazing, than hay production. Reason being, the weather doesn't really put that on hold. Fescue needs its first cutting, a month before the weanther allows it. Relegates me to two cuttings. Both are usually over mature. Cow goes right on. Cloudy days don't slow her down. She can harvest more forage, than my hay mower can in a 7 month growing season. [/QUOTE]
