[QUOTE="machslammer, post: 1149742, member: 20421"] Currently, we cut 6 different fields for hay. 1 of those we own and 1 we can no till or do whatever we wish with, just keep it looking nice. Others we have no choice and just cut it. On our field 19 acres worth, 2 yrs ago, we drilled in fescue, rye, and red clover. First year it did great for TN and made 60-80 rolls per cutting X 3 cuttings. This year on first cutting and may not get but 2, it made 45 rolls. The clover looks as though it has spread rapidly and our fescue has cut way back. We are going to go in and kill some/all of the clover, re-drill fescue and orchard grass, and we are wanting to put some sort of summer warm season grass in with it... Any suggestions? Switchgrass looks wonderful with little maintenance, but will it grow when planted in with other grasses. The field is pretty clean with no weeds but does have cool season grasses. Any suggestions? Drill in sudax every year? Need good opinions. Wont have a pasture with just it so need something that the cool season won't smother out or vice versa. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
