[QUOTE="BC, post: 935431, member: 67"] The key to quality grazing with bermuda is to keep it young and vegetative. That is why I think you need to speed up the rotation. Manage it like you would for hay. 40 day old bermuda makes a lot of lower quality hay (6% to 8% CP), the grass would be the same. At 16 to 24 days old, the crude protein and TDN should be much higher. This will maintain your milking ability and body condition scores. As you are starting out, you may have to apply some fertilizer depending on your soil test to get the base levels up to speed. After your base fertility is taken care of, the clovers and nutrient recycling should take over. [/QUOTE]
