FORAGE TIMELY TIPS FOR JANUARY
Continue grazing stockpiled tall fescue if available.
Assess grass stands. If thin, consider adding legumes.
Begin frost seeding with 6-8 lb/A red and 1-2 lb/A ladino white clover on closely grazed pastures.
On pastures with lower fertility, consider also adding 10-15 lb/A annual lespedeza.
Consider applying 40 lb/A nitrogen in mid- to late-February on some pastures to promote early growth.
Sign up for shared use drills for spring renovation.
Service and calibrate no-till drills.
Apply lime and fertilizer according to soil test if not done in fall.
