Forage Timely Tips for April
-
Graze cover crops using temporary fencing.
-
As pasture growth begins, rotate through pastures quickly to keep up with the fast growth of spring.
-
Creep-graze calves and lambs, allowing them access to highest-quality pasture.
-
Finish re-seeding winter feeding sites where soil disturbance and sod damage occurred.
-
As pasture growth exceeds the needs of the livestock, remove some fields from the rotation and allow growth to accumulate for hay or haylage.
-
Flash graze pastures newly seeded with clovers to manage competition.
