[QUOTE="fargus, post: 843946, member: 13480"] We have lots of OG, the trick is getting the cows to eat it. That's why MIG works very well, you force them to utilize it. It's growth pattern is great once you get the seed head clipped off, after that it just grows leaf, and is surprisingly drought-tolerant for a cool-season grass. It gets mature easily in the spring, it's the first grass to shoot up a seed head in the spring around here so it's tough to get it all grazed off before it gets coarse and stemmy. Lots of it gets cut for hay around here, it seems to tolerate getting cut short for a few years, and then peters out. If you can somehow get some smooth brome established to fill in the holes between the clumps of OG that would be a good mix. [/QUOTE]
