A cool spring and dry weather have resulted in lower-than-expected pasture production in parts of the state. With summer upon us, even ample moisture now may not return pastures, especially those that are cool season dominated, to full productivity. So, what can we do to stretch a limited forage supply?
While annual forages that prefer cool temperatures like brassicas and small grains may not be an option to plant, those needing summer forage are right on time to get heat loving species like sorghums, sorghum-sudan hybrids, millets, and sudangrass in the ground. These annual grasses can produce large quantities of forage for harvest. Different species lend themselves to different harvest methods, so know how you plan on feeding or grazing before you plant.
