High-quality forage boosts animal performance Advice for trees in your landscape; plus other tips for farmers By GARY TILGHMANFor the Daily Times Raking and disposing of the leaves will not reduce the population because the insects are not in that portion that gets “cut” off first.
– To Do List – Suggestions - Get a Breeding Soundness Examination on your bulls from your veterinarian before turning them out to the breeding pasture. Use extreme caution while around and handling livestock. - Remember, in order to get early March calves, turn bulls out around May 20. - UK still recommends producers to test your wheat for nitrate levels that was cut for forage, before feeding it.The early April freeze damage has left questions about potential nitrate problems. The only way to lessen the risk of concern is to have a nitrate test on the forage, especially after it has “cured.” Don’t take any chances! - Get that cool-season grass hay cut soon (hopefully already). Seed heads are appearing, the plant has reached its peak for quality. Remember, over-mature hay makes manure, immature hay produces better nutrition. – Private Pesticide Applicator Certification A Private Pesticide Applicator Certification program will be offered at the Barren County Extension Office on Wednesday afternoon, May 30, beginning at 1 p.m. Remember, the Barren County Extension Office is located at 1463 West Main Street in Glasgow.
