[QUOTE="BC, post: 1708069, member: 67"] It is going to cost something to winter a cow. We know the nutritional needs of the cow. If the hay quality is low, you spend money on seed and fertilizer or buy protein and energy. I got my first and second cutting of hay in one cutting in July. I have had it checked and it is not going to meet the cows needs. From past experience, planting a 1/3 to 1/2 acre of ryegrass/clover per cow and using my lower quality hay has been the cheapest way to winter. We limit graze the ryegrass for a 2 hours a day or 4 hours every other day. [/QUOTE]
