As did my grandma--but darned if I can remember it. I do remember:" What's for supper, Grandma?" "Pig's ass and cabbage---and damned little cabbage~!"

Whoops! angus said it while I was hunting and pecking.............ah well-great minds work alike...

short and sweet method: broadcast some alfalfa--THEN--(you want the hoof action) put as many cows on it as you can find and eat grass to the dirt as quick as you can. cows off, water on. I'd maybe use an older variety that would hang in there, like ladak.

I've got a field that was played out and sodded in. Havn't farmed it at all. A qt of roundup in fall, another in spring, no till hay barley in. Willow creek winter wheat last fall==made 4 ton. it's flood irrigated. Got some more I'm just doing now. roundup and winter triticale, gonna...

If he's out by the 20th, he for sure owes you 5 days. Say a dollar a day, 90 hd, 450$. The rest is arguable. I'd talk to the cow owner, say what I think is right, listen to what he thinks is right. Give him an opportunity to do the right thing. Then it's on him. My life is getting too...

What would consumer say about laundry detergent? Well, they might notice you don't have to get it through a vet--unlike yours. So--might make you fart bubbles but pwobry not. Might also notice it was mentioned by a producer--not a guy with 4 posts who came on here asking a question but maybe...

as I understand frothy bloat, it has big bubbles that a cow can't belch or pass. and kills by asphyxiation. bloat guard, etal, breaks these bubbles down. We use laundry soap, get one w/o bleach, to do the same thing. 1/2 cup per 50# loose salt is rec'd, so--natcherly--we use a cup. to work...

I'll check---havn't had any trouble with oats or barley, if I cut late in the day and make sure sun's been shining for last couple days. Did a drill mix and 30#N 3# S this spring, so not too aggressive. This country, a little sulphur shows lotsa results. And for an experiment, put on a growth...

mine is about ready to cut, just starting to head. comparable to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4F_FnjkxvE I had one neighbor tell me that his regrew and made good grazing--and even overwintered, almost acting like a perennial. I was planning on hitting it with roundup and seeding...

I'm experimenting with this one on oats and willow creek winter wheat----both for forage. And on an old mostly grass, grass/alf field. Does anyone have any input? thanks. http://www.valent.com/agriculture/products/ryzupsmartgrass/index.cfm

they were experimenting with this in '64. The neighbor lady had one, was supposed to turn it on for so long, then off for so long. In early june a weather system stalled out between glacier park and hi way 200, about 100+ miles south. It dumped 14" of rain in 24 hours, on a heavy snowpack. A...

I seeded some oats for hay really early. Some was morgan, when I ran out of morgan, I found some otana. Really weird spring, sat there a long time, then got hot and dry, tried to head out at about 6" on up. Then it started raining and I also got water running and flood irrigated it. Cutting...

My experience---peas like it early, they like it wet/cool, they need specific inoculant, they add pods till cut, can only use certain weed sprays, by time stems are dry the rest likes to shatter I seeded a bag about a mo ago into stubble--my 'agronimist' wanted to try them, figgers if it works...

Location is very important--we figure 3 to 5 acres, per pair, per mo on summer grazing. I'd put up any hay offered, that was worth cutting, for no more than half and be glad to get it. I've got friends other places that talk cows per acre and basically never get done haying, they just quit...

"Should of kept my mouth shut i guess" Not in my book. Your word aint' no good, neither are you. I do the vast majority on a handshake, and some over the phone--they do what they say, I do what I say, works for me.

Are your numbers actual---100# N, etc? Do you know--ball park---cost per acre? Thanks~~lj

My father in law had some crested that was old farm ground, formerly strips that you could still see. He started seeding sweet clover into every other strip, and hayed the other 50% of strips that he'd seeded the yr before. Said he got about same amount of hay and only had to go over half as...

topics been scattered over several different headers---some info here

Don't know about FH----but our soils are limestone based---last thing we need to do is apply lime==

I've never grown it. Might this fall. Neighbors brag it up. Hodgekiss's grow as much of the seed they sell as they can---are good farmers and i'm pretty sure they'd share any info---
