Farmers in the U.S. began producing silage as cattle feed in the late 19th century during the early days of mechanized agriculture.

January was brutally cold. My home country had been blessed with some much-needed moisture in the form of several December and January snowstorms, and winter didn’t slow down in February.

Moisture conditions are improving, but hay exports and milk prices are weakening, with a likely impact on demand.

Some farmers see thin alfalfa (less than 40 stems per square foot) and think about overseeding to improve the stand and yield.

During the past few months, I’ve walked across a lot of pastures – at the monthly meetings of our forage study groups and with individual clients. Take your time to make sound decisions when renovating a field, and one day you'll stand at the edge of your field and look out over the lush, young growth.
