Forage Timely Tips for March
-
Continue pasture renovation by no-tilling seeding legumes.
-
Place small seed at 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep and check depth several times during planting; slow down for more precise seeding.
-
Continue feeding hay until adequate forage exists in the pasture for grazing.
-
Spring seeding of grasses should be done in early to mid-March (but fall is preferred).
-
Begin smoothing and re-seeding hay feeding and heavy traffic areas.
-
Graze pastures overseeded with clover to reduce competition from existing grasses. Pull livestock off before grazing new clover plants.
-
Provide free choice high-magnesium mineral to prevent grass tetany on lush spring growth.
