[QUOTE="baleflipper, post: 923857, member: 16896"] Most years I plant a hundred acres of haygrazer. This year I planted 65 acres of hay grazer and sprigged the rest in costal bermuda. In the over 30 yrs I have had this place I dont recall a year with nitrate poisoning.I think this is because I only put out 200 lbs of 20-10-0 a cutting. After the first cutting I top dress ,after second cutting I top dress.I dont usualy get a third cutting ,I graze the remaining forage. This land is on the edge of the blacklands,it has some sandy land in spots.Most years I get 4 big rounds an acre per cutting. I prefer the Sweet type of haygrazer.It usualy is a bit earlier to boot and is not quite as stemmy. I plant in first week of march most years,this year it was first week in april due to a wet march.The frost usualy kills it in mid november. My cows have grazed it to the ground about then. I figure a cow to the acre for grazing. Last night we had 1 3/10 inch rain . It should make some hay now.All of April was dry not even a tenth of inch rain. [/QUOTE]
