Agricultural Establishing Forages Jimmy C. Henning and Howell N. Wheaton Department of Agronomy, University of Missouri-Columbia Avoid forage seeding failures by using research-proven procedures. Seeding failures are costly, not only in seed and labor cost, but in providing inadequate feed the following year. Adequate moisture, temperature, plant nutrients, air and light are necessary for plant growth. These may be affected by time of seeding, seedbed preparation, seed quality, analysis and amounts of fertilizer, fertilizer placement, and manipulation of competing species such as weeds and/or companion crops. Time of seeding Do not no-till seed alfalfa in the fall in south Missouri, due to potential stand loss caused by sclerotinia crown rot. Spring seedings Make spring seedings as early as possible. These seedings are best made in one of the following ways: Seeded with spring oats and the oats harvested for pasture or hay. Experimental results indicate the combined yield of oats and forage make this a very economical way to establish new seedings; or Seed in late March, April or early May without a companion crop but using chemicals to control weeds. This is often the best way to establish birdsfoot trefoil in old bluegrass sods in northern Missouri.

Agricultural Forages for Swine Howell N. Wheaton Department of Agronomy, University of Missouri-Columbia John C. Rea Department of Animal Sciences, University of Missouri-Columbia Use of good pasture containing alfalfa, ladino clover, and grass can lower sow feed costs, help maintain high level reproductive capacity of boars, and in many cases increase litter size as compared to confinement raising of hogs. Pasture was formerly an absolute essential for a successful swine operation. In recent years, growing of hogs in confinement has become a reality because of vastly improved rations and means of disease and parasite control. But it is still possible to use large amounts of forage with the breeding herd. Bred sows and gilts on legume pastures require much less supplemental protein and only about one-half as much grain as those in dry lots. An acre of good pasture should carry 8 to 10 sows. Forages selected for swine should be succulent and capable of high production, very palatable, high in protein and vitamins, and produce over a reasonably long growth period. Pastures make possible a good swine sanitation and disease control program. After swine have grazed pasture for one season, use the pasture for cattle or harvest hay from it for two years before using it for hogs again.

Ohio State University Fact Sheet Animal Sciences 2129 Fyffe Rd., Columbus, Ohio 43210 Forages for Dairy Cattle AS-0002-99 W.P. Weiss M.L. Eastridge J.F. Underwood Ohio State University Extension Introduction The quality or nutritional value of a forage can be defined as its ability to support a certain level of animal performance. Dairy cows fed high-quality forage produce more milk with less supplemental concentrate than cows fed lower-quality forage. The nutrient or chemical composition of forage largely determines its quality. Chemical composition of a forage depends on plant characteristics and harvesting and storage methods. The objectives of this fact sheet are to discuss: 1) methods of determining forage quality; 2) factors affecting forage quality, including forage harvesting and storage procedures; and 3) the value of different forages in dairy feeding situations. Forage Quality Measures of forage quality. All forages should be analyzed for nutrient composition prior to feeding. An actual laboratory analysis is the only way to properly judge the quality or feeding value of a forage. Forages should at least be analyzed for dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), fiber (acid detergent [ADF] or neutral detergent [NDF]), and available energy (TDN or NEL). Other nutrient information, such as mineral content, is needed to balance diets but it will not be discussed in this publication. Generally, CP content is positively correlated with quality. In other words, high-protein forages generally are high-quality forages. Alfalfa, if harvested in the late bud stage of maturity, can contain 20 to 25% CP (DM basis). Grasses, if fertilized properly and harvested in the vegetative stage of maturity, can have more than 20% CP. An exception to this general relationship is corn silage, which is low in CP but is a high-quality forage because of its energy content.

CIAT in Focus Much of the feed for livestock in developing countries comes from various tropical forage species. In Latin America as much as 70 percent of the total agricultural land area is in native and planted pastures. Visit our Tropical Forages Web site Download the PDF document (164 kb) For further information contact: Carlos Lascano The Importance of Tropical Forages Research for Development Partnerships ... Impact The Importance of Tropical Forages Worldwide, livestock use 3.4 billion hectares of grazing land as well as the production from about a quarter of the land in crops. This amounts to more than two-thirds of total agricultural land area and a third of total land area. Forage species are thus a prominent feature of agricultural landscapes around the world. In the humid and subhumid tropics, most pastures are in native species of inferior nutritional quality. As a result, livestock productivity in native pastures tends to be quite low, and the possibilities for sustainable intensification are limited. In recent decades, though, forage specialists have identified a wide variety of tropical forage grasses and legumes that are highly productive, show superior nutritional quality, and are well suited to marginal agroecosystems characterized by low soil fertility and drought. In Latin America much progress has been made toward commercializing and promoting these improved forages, notably the grass

54. Endophyte Toxins In Grass Seed Fields And Straw General introduction to endophytes and discussion of problems with pasturing animals on tall fescue and perennial ryegrass, which may be infected with high levels of an endophyte that produces toxins harmful to livestock. http://www.forages.css.orst.edu/Topics/Pastures/Species/Grasses/Animal_issues/En

EM 8598 June 1995 Endophyte Toxins in Grass Seed Fields and Straw Effects on Livestock S. Aldrich-Markham and G. Pirelli Both grass seed growers and livestock producers can benefit by grazing animals on grass seed fields and feeding grass seed straw. However, problems can develop if livestock consume turf varieties of tall fescue and perennial ryegrass. Some turf varieties are infected with high levels of endophyte, which produces toxins harmful to livestock. What is endophyte? Endophyte is a fungus that lives inside the grass plant. The relationship between grass and endophyte is symbiotic; that is, it benefits both. Although, the endophyte does not harm the grass, it produces toxins that are harmful to livestock. Since it does not affect the appearance of the grass plant, its presence can be detected only by laboratory analysis. Some grass varieties grown for turf seed have high levels of endophyte. The reason is that infected plants can have increased growth, increased drought tolerance, and resistance to certain insects-qualities for which plant breeders select. All of the forage varieties of tall fescue and perennial ryegrass produced in Oregon, however, are endophyte-free or have very low levels of endophyte. Breeders of forage varieties have been selecting out infected fields since the 1970s, when the connection between endophyte in tall fescue and a livestock disease called fescue toxicity was discovered.

On-farm seed production trials commenced in 2003 with 7 farmers. In 2004, with support from the Mexican seed company Papalotla , more than 4000 smallholder seed producers will establish 1600 hectares of two hybrids (Mulato and Mulato 2) using seedlings transplanted from nursery beds. The seed will be hand-harvested in November with the crop expected to exceed 250 tons.
