[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14701"] > Welcome to the MO Ozarks. Thanks, I am near Stockton. > I would recommend you winter/frost seed clover into the fescue to help dilute the endophyte, before things got bad with the fescue, just by adding clover we added 100 lbs to our weaning weights. That is good advice and I will winter seed clover into the fields and also get an AG Extension Agent up here to look at the needs of the land. > 500# is small round bale, large rounds are 900 to 1100 lbs., have you weighed the bales or just guesstimated them? Guestimated, one neighbor said 600 and the other said 500. They pick-up like 500 pounds. Will the vet store the semen for you from year to year? It looks like he will, but I could always get my own tank if I had to. > Back to the hay thing. Talk to your local USDA NRCS folks, they can advise you on fertilization, etc. to keep your fields in the best shape. I was told to fertilize and seed in the same winter application. Local MFA has a truck that will come in and do that, for a price. > Depending on the area you are in, I may be able to provide phone numbers, etc. for you to contact Again, I am just South of Stockton. > Good luck > dunmovin farms Thanks!
