I have a 65 acre irrigated field that I have rented out the past three years. It has been in a corn/peanut/corn rotation. We are getting 275 per acre rent, but this is the last year of the lease. In a perfect world, I want to plant it in a summer annual next year and run 4-6 head per acre on it. Stockers or heifers is yet to be determined.
What successes or failures have you experienced with millet or crabgrass for high stocking rates? Keeping in mind this is irrigated land in South GA (plenty of water). I worry a little about insects in millet and know nothing about crabgrass.
It is also HOT during the summer. I would be interested to know any ADG's you've had during summer grazing of stocker cattle.
