Here is what one farmer has te say about his experiences with SX-11 for hoy: For the finest quality hay, SX-11 should he cut at about waist-level. At this stage of growth, SX-11 is near maximum protein level, and is tops in appetite appeal. The use of a crimper or crusher is important to aid in drying. Although this field of SX-11 was not fertilized after the first cutting, DeKalb recommends that after each chopping or har vesting of a crop a top dressing of 30 to 70 pounds of “N” be added.

Oa May 20tli I planted my SX-11 at about '5O lbs. per acre. It was Tory dry, but by the first week in July, I was greenchopping. On August 15th I oat it again, only this time tor hay. I crashed right after the mower and bal ed it two days later. The yield was about 3 tons per acre and quality was Tory good. I didn’t think cattle would prefer SX-11 hay to other good hay, but they do. I believe it now after see ing it. I intend to use more SX-11, because of its versatility in uses and its tremendous yielding ability.” Signed Hem>y Beif snider, Sept. 9, 19« S f[ for pasture Q for green chop ■ ' ! > < <. /< < > >?-, 'HJfi-* ' {■•'>' * W""-'Vtif *♦£>'*, ' ?
