Forage Timely Tips: February 

  • Continue grazing stockpiled tall fescue if available.
  • Assess grass stands. If thin, consider adding legumes.
  • Begin frost seeding with at least 6 lb/A red and 1 lb/A white clover on closely grazed pastures.
  • On pastures with lower fertility, consider adding 10-15 lb/A annual lespedeza to the above recommendation.
  • Consider applying 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
