2003 was a challenging year to harvest
stored forage. Add a grazing system to
your farm to reduce harvest risk and in
crease forage quality. Sugars, vitamins,
and other factors are at their best. Cow
comfort on pasture is also excellent.
Great forage quality combined with cow
comfort results in cows that last longer -
and more lifetime profit per cowl

FRIENDLY MIX
Similar to King's Grazing
Mix, but will provide a little
more summer production
because it has ARI en
hanced ryegrass w/better
heat resistance, as well as
a little more orchardgrass
Very Palatable!
DAIRY PLUS
This is our most palatable
mix and should make the
highest milk yields - but
requires the best soils It
is a ryegrass, Timothy,
and clover blend
