Cut Your Pasture
Good pasture management
calls for mowing your pasture
every four to six weeks, starting
in early June, according to Max
Smith, Lancaster County ag
agent.
The idea of mowing, Smith
said, is to prevent the weeds and
grass from going to seed and to
encourage succulent new growth
of the grasses.
Permanent pastures should be
cut every four to six weeks from
now until October, enabling a
farmer to'get the most from an
acre of pasture.
The dried up clippings, Smith
noted, will be eaten by the cattle
like hay.
It is the responsibility of every
landowner, including builders
and other people who own land'
that is not farmed, to mow weeds
and keep them from going to
seed, £mith said.
