[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 680062, member: 4362"] I see no purpose in cutting the seed heads for cattle. Never had an eye problem with bahia but I guess it is possible. As for them sowing the seeds this could be a SLIGHT problem if you move them from a bahai field to a bermuda field as some of the hard coated seeds could pollute your bermuda stand. This is splitting hairs though as treatment for this is much more practical than the alternative. Besides that, cows aren't the only ones who eat the seeds. As for nutrition - and I'm pushing the envelope here - I think you would be better off letting them have the grain unless of course you were running a "grass fed" operation since you are supposed to only feed grass and no grain. Or does this only apply to grains of corn? Or is grain grain? And is corn not in the grass family? :help: I'm confused. (just kidding) Save your time and diesel. [/QUOTE]
