PASTURE WALK
Green Spirit and BG-34 Ryegrass, as well as Alfalfa, Hakari Brome,
Orchardgrass, Timothy and more. We expect to have some well established
Sorghum Sudan, Turnips, and Forage Soybeans.
One of the topics for discussion will be milk yield per acre
Mark Rehak and Ron Dodds (agronomists and C.C.A.) will be here to help
answer questions. Tim Fritz from Penn State Extension will be here to speak
about the financial aspects of grazing.
We will demonstate the Reese mower and Baar’s Irrigation System
IS YOUR GRASS GONE TO HEADS?
Try B.G. 34 RYEGRASS! NO HEADS in sight as of May 24, 2000!! Has
already yielded 6000 lbs. high energy high protein pasture on a dry matter intake
basis. For seed and how to manage BG-34 RYEGRASS PASTURE contact
