At this section of the site we provide information about some of the forages we grow regularly and some of the experimental forages we are testing before we implement widespread use at the ranch.
Ball Clover
In Fall 2009 we planted a test plot of Grazer’s Select™ ball clover; seed obtained from Fairlie Seed Company, LLC. Linked here are some images showing what that clover grew into by April 2010 and some images in January 2011 showing how well it reseeded itself.
Pearl Millet
During the summer of 2010 we raised and grazed a really nice, 5-acre stand of Tifleaf 3 Pearl Millet. This is a special hybrid pearl millet designed as a forage crop. Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum): Overview and Management - University of Florida
