U of I hires forage agronomy specialist

For years now, the University of Tennessee has been offering classes and programs to help and assist our farmers to produce better crops and livestock.  And now they are launching their latest, the Tennessee Master Forage Program.

With winter just around the corner for New Zealanders, our latest topic focuses on the effects of cold temperatures and frost on forage plants. We investigate how frosts damage our plants during the freeze-thaw cycles, “messing” with a plants wellbeing. Thankfully – and given time for plants to adjust to the cold - Mother Nature steps in and helps a plant develop some degree of resilience to cold and frosty weather.  Despite this, frosts can damage pasture plants, causing a drop / fall in pasture mass (kgDM/ha) through the winter - as well as reducing the nutritive value of pasture during long cold winter months.  Rug up warm and tune in for this, our latest podcast!!

Join us on the Grazing Grass Podcast as we explore the world of grass-based livestock production, featuring Ted Miller from Delta Dairy in Louisiana. Ted shares his fascinating journey of transitioning his dairy operation from Pennsylvania to the Mississippi Delta, offering insights into his innovative use of virtual collars for cattle management. Discover how the Halter brand of collars has transformed his grazing strategy, and hear firsthand how Ted manages his forages, including the strategic planting of cool-season annuals. This episode provides valuable perspectives for anyone interested in sustainable grazing practices, from dairy farmers to beef, sheep, and goat producers.We also compare the differences in dairy farming practices between New Zealand and the southern United States, highlighting how climate and environmental conditions influence farming decisions. Ted recounts his personal experiences with moving his dairy operation to Louisiana, detailing the logistical challenges and the genetic acclimatization of his herd to a warmer climate. Additionally, we discuss the importance of adapting livestock to local conditions, exploring the role of genetics and epigenetics in cattle breeding and management. Learn about the innovative use of solar-powered virtual fencing and its impact on labor management and forage utilization.Throughout our conversation, we emphasize the need for adaptability and innovation in farming, sharing strategies for forage management and the benefits of rotational grazing. Ted offers his experiences with introducing smart collars to his herd, detailing the process of training cattle to respect virtual boundaries. We also touch on the challenges of maintaining a competitive edge in the commodity milk market and the significance of mentorship and confidence in grass-fed systems. Whether you're a seasoned farmer or new to grass-based production, this episode offers a wealth of knowledge and inspiration for improving farm efficiency and productivity.Links Mentioned in the Episode:Delta Dairy Louisiana Grazing Lands Conservation Initiative

On this episode of the Dairy Show, sponsored by Legacy Seeds, we visit with John and Sheri Egan of Egan Family Dairy, located in Omro, Wisconsin and their agronomist, Judd Hodgen. Achieving herd production goals of 100 pounds of milk and 7.25 pounds of solids per cow was made possible, in large part, to the quality forages they raise and feed the 500+ cow herd. Champions of the 2021 World Forage Superbowl Standard Corn Silage Category, these folks know a thing or two about producing quality feed.  Join the Egan Family as they celebrate June Dairy Month on their Centennial Farm on June 1. They will be hosting Grilled Cheese Day from 10 am to 2 pm, sponsored by the Winnebago County Farm Bureau.
