Last fall I planted a new fescue field (10 acres). I have kept the cows off of it the entire year, letting it grow undisturbed. My plan, was to leave this fescue alone and put the cows on it some time in the fall.
Summer came early and dry months will be the norm for some time. My nice green virgin fescue field is looking kinda ragged. I am worried that if I wait till fall this field will be an uneatable mess.
Not sure what I should do. I could hay it, but I don't have any hay storage left this year. Being a noob, I have a feeling that I am missing the concept of 'stockpiling' and could use some education. Any advice would help.
Thanks in advance!
