Nous sommes l’après-midi, il est 15 heures et le foin est enfin assez sec pour être mis en balles. Au premier tour dans le champ, mon téléphone vibre dans ma poche au même moment que ma radio posée dans les porte-gobelets commence à se faire entendre – ça doit être une mauvaise nouvelle!

Jason Hartschuh

Winter annual forages have become a mainstay for many dairy and beef rations across the country.

Jason Hartschuh

Spring 2019 has been challenging to say the least. Hayfields have disappeared due to winterkill, and small grains matured before we could make hay. Making the forages that you have at the highest quality possible will be key.
