[QUOTE="herofan, post: 1318312, member: 17843"] I'm not sure if there is a mathematical way I could combine all these items and arrive at a conclusion. I guess if I meet in the middle, I could graze a hay field, but get them off as early as possible in the spring, maybe even February. - hold until end of April, keeps hay from getting over ripe -get the cows off now -take off in next couple of weeks -pull cattle off in fall; never considered benefit of leaving them on -did experiment; field grazed had less undergrowth; no cows for me unless bad year -cattle on hay ground before, during, or after is a negative -manure in hay is an issue - graze in fall, run over with tire drag in spring to break up manure clumps -manure clumps from winter grazing are broken up with harvesting process [/QUOTE]
