Grazing Alfalfa
Ray Smith, Krista Lea, and Jimmy Henning
The UK Forage Group has recently completed a major update of the national publication Grazing. This effort was in cooperation with the National Alfalfa and Forage Alliance. Grazing Alfalfa provides producers in KY and around the country with a comprehensive guide to utilizing alfalfa in pasture systems. It includes recent history of the crop, growth and management and how to integrate alfalfa into beef, dairy, sheep, goat, and horse operations. We incorporated our 25 years of experience running alfalfa grazing tolerance trials with expertise from California and Argentina to complete a truly national and international publication.
