Moved a group of cows home to start grazing irrigated Italian ryegrass. Water is everything. @GraemeFinn1 @UnionForage #gallagherfencing

Feed testing day. If you use a bale processor I guess you don’t have to pull the net wrap back to core bales. #cheapknowledge #donotguess The 13’ sorghum Sudangrass blend swaths impress me in a drought.

Swath grazing the replacements and dry cows on union forage ultimate blend. @UnionForage
As winter quickly approaches it is time to collect and send off your feed tests, regardless of your feeding system. It is the only way to ensure that you are making the most efficient decisions for your operation. Reach out to us to share your results, get tips and ask questions!

.@obiohadurunna and I have an online survey asking about the use (and non-use) of swathgrazing. Over 150 responses so far. We still want to hear from cattle producers from BC to MB. Link to survey: ca1se.voxco.com/SE/90/Swathg… #westcdnag #cattle

In a dry year a great @UnionForage cover crop for fall grazing the girls should be on it till mid to end of Nov
Feed quality is of high importance to me the soil health will follow 😄

Swath grazing coming down. Should save a little fuel and time this winter, done spending money on feeding once it’s cut

Union Forage Swath grazing blend with millet. 90 mm of rain since seeding. Lots of options with this blend, standing graze, silage, or swath graze. Lots of other options to fit your program. Shoot me a message let’s chat. @weber4farms @UnionForage @GraemeFinn1

Well done Darin I think we don’t use our irrigation systems enough for grazing cows in tuff times – at Rocky View County, Alberta

Such a greatday for a sod seeding clinic at our place today. A huge shoutout to @bekkrause at Wallaby Ag for not only organizing the day but being the wealth of information that you are! @GraemeFinn1 @GrantLastiwka this goes for both of you too! We are indebted to all 3 of you!
