North Dakota | This spring we planted a saline grass mix into a bunch of white and wet spots. We used feed barley as a cover. Well as it turned out we have a pretty good barley crop out there now. From what I have read we should cut it in early dough stage. It will be cut with a conditioner and put up into large rounds. Whats everyones opinion on when to cut it. And do I need to worry about who gets these bales, meaning will it be okay for bred cows, replacement heifers, calves after weaning? Thanks for any input.
P.S. Chopping is not a option, hay to be put up in large rounds. |
