Managing forages is easy. If farmers have never planted<br />
forages before they may need advice about the specific<br />
requirements of different varieties. The following<br />
management principles will help farmers to improve<br />
forage quality and yield,<br />
forage persistence, and<br />
animal production.<br />
How often should we cut forages?<br />
The decision on how often to cut forages is not based<br />
simply on yield and feed quality. It also depends on the<br />
needs of the farmer at that time, which may be more<br />
important than any other considerations.
