Pretty common if folks pull the sample. Same for checking bagged minerals on the ingredients on the tag. You don't always get what you think. Either the mixing operator is off, the scales are off or worse in the fertilizer deal and likely the minerals. A major seed company just pulled the entire...

Feed high mag minerals and don't buy some cheap junk that is so bitter that they will not touch it.

You must be too far north. Here it gets up to 7' tall and does well.

Might be 20 feet of top soil on it (n):unsure: Who are you kidding besides yourself?

Common means unknown type. Beware of it alone and in blends with names that sound like a selection. Some of the turf types have little protein even when well fertilized and can be short.

Tift 9 will need better grazing management. Some will depend on your plans to fertilize. Bermudagrass needs more than bahaigrass to grow to the potential.

Remedy or a generic makes it a dead enemy.

Crimson clover in the SE USA is fall seeded. I would not expect a lot from it if spring or late winter seeding was done.

Yes. It will make hay. Reseeding is iffy.

No. If you want more height then you need to go with Patriot but I don't think that it would increase hay yields as much as it improves grazing and adds N.

If you read the book, The Wonder Grass, KY31 has been controversial since much earlier than the 70's and livestock response was part of that along with the typical ego wars. There is another angle to the KY31 fescue costs. If you manage it correctly and use controlled strip grazing or however...

It returns on the tractors, equipment, livestock, shoes, hay... It WILL return.

"I have learned recently that the litter in the newer operations is treated to reduce the ammonia, so it doesn't burn the chicken's feet and the time between cleanings has been extended to a year. The hay producers here are saying you still will have to hit it with Urea after the litter because...

Legumes will deal with the endophyte, improve livestock performance and add N for the grasses as a triple plus. Farm for legumes, including seeding and reseeding when it favors the legumes, and the overall will be better. Don't just stick with one species of legumes - plant and trial multiples...

Were you in part of the drought this fall? I had some sheep issues years ago after a fall drought. The Vet did some research and found that drought stressed fescue in the fall has high levels of endophytes. It was the only study I ever saw on that subject. But the cows, even if used to and...

A lot better for the effort.

More of a limitation of the spreader than the litter. That is some potent manure and the problem with it if you can't trust the hauler is that they will load it even if it is wet and that is a royal pain.

Is the litter from a brooder house or a growout house? A lot of difference. The brooder litter will be very little in NPK.

Must have been a while. I am friends of the folks on Trask Ranch. About 3 Herefords there, at most, out of 100's. All others except for a few holdouts have gone black. And fescue tolerance is not in the mainstream of the breeds. Once you see folks tighten up breeding seasons and such they start...
