[QUOTE="lead_dog, post: 466071, member: 5972"] For the next 45 days or so (until the rye grass comes in), my plan is to fence them in an area where we're planting a new garden. I've put wood chips in there as well as spreading some deer corn. My plan is to put the hay or silage on the perimeter just under the electric fence, so the cows can reach it to eat and deposit manure in the new garden. I'll add more wood chips as needed to build the organic matter. Then, when I take them out in late January, I'll put the pigs in to till everything up and look for the fermented corn. We have good forage for the rest of the year, with longtime stands of fescue, bermuda, dallis grass, etc. We'll be drilling in durana clover next year once I lime once more and get the pH up a little.
