during the summer i have kept my 15 head on a 10 acre parcel and they have just been able to keep up. I purchased the 10 acres next door and the grass is high and pretty good.
Everyone says to mow it. My thought is let them eat it when the grass stops growing. I know it rough but they will eat it. I figure its like hay without the trouble.
Whats the benefit of mowing high grass if its going to be eatten at a later date. If its all high they wont go for the tender stuff since its all tall. seems like a lot of extra work if the cattle are just going to eat it either way. thanks.
