If you are a livestock and forage producer and have not been joining the Upper Cumberland Extension Team on the 2nd Tuesday of each month for the Forage Webinar Series, you’re missing out! Already this year we have discussed important topics like dealing with high fertilizer prices, establishing legumes, weed control, and summer forage options.
We have some more great topics coming throughout the year including establishing cool season forage, feeding strategies, and using native grasses. This month’s session, scheduled for May 10 at 7:00 p.m., will feature Dr. Dennis Hancock, Director for the U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center.
Dr. Hancock is one of the most highly regarded forage specialists in the country and will join us to discuss “Hay Production: Getting the Most Out of Your Crop.” He will focus on topics related to the hay making process such as when to cut, cutting height, managing moisture, etc. To sign up for this free Zoom session, register online at http://iny.utk.edu/forages .
