Creating Forage Chains

Pre-regisration has closed, but walkups are welcome at the event.

Explore ways to create a continuous forage chain throughout the year, utilizing grazing techniques, cover crops, and practices that reduce feed costs and improve farm profitability with the Crow Wing River Basin Forage Council.

Steve and Sue Flanagan will present. Address: 36554 620th Ave. Bluffton, MN 56518

Demonstration and discussion topics will include:

1. Grazing Management during a drought: What worked for the Flanagans this year? What didn't? Stocking rates, triggers.

2. Extending stored feed during a drought: grazing out grain, stalks, straw, and byproducts.

3. Stocking and forage chain options for 2022: cool season and warm season annual mixes.

SFA's COVID-19 Preparedness Plan will be implemented at this event. Registration strongly encouraged for planning purposes. Walk ups welcome.
