Day 8 of Giving
As mentioned yesterday, forages are the most economical way of feeding, but they may not always meet the required nutrients depending on the stage of production. The ONLY way to know if your forages are going to leave your animals deficient is through a forage test. Dr. Jimmy Henning, University of Kentucky, explains how to read a forage test.
Rotational grazing is key to better pasture management, better forage utilization, and the top tool in parasite management. The Master Small Ruminant Grazing School will walk you through seeding, establishing, feeding, and storing your forages. Use discount code doggrazing23 to get 15% off the class.
