How We Plant Alfalfa for High Quality Hay
This video discusses all the details behind how we plant our alfalfa fields.
When planting alfalfa there is a lot to be considered. From what time of year to plant, to the depth of the seeds and the equipment used.
We cover a lot of ground in this video:
Field Preparation: Discussed the process of preparing the field for planting alfalfa, including past crop rotations and the decision to plant alfalfa in June despite the typical preference for planting earlier in the year.
The field in this video had previously been used for three-way grain and corn. The decision was made to plant alfalfa directly instead of waiting for another grain crop to finish. Preparation involved ripping, disking, an...

Hoof Trimming Our Bulls and Why it is Necessary
I feed a few calves every winter to fill my freezer. I sell 6 or 8 head every year. I put them on corn for about 3 to 4 months before they go to processing. They are trying to put a local beef processing facility in Richfield Ut to create a local market for beef producers. Do you finish them or just back ground the calves? Not much corn produced here to finish cattle on. I buy it from a farm in Green River Ut. Good luck with your channel I think it will be a big hit.
This farming thing is a huge learning curve. Good luck I know the price of hay has dropped like crazy. It is hard to pay the bills at 100 per ton. I hope your hay does this year.

Have a property that only gets 10 inches of annual precipitation. And is covered in sage brush if removed and cleared would I be able to dry farm alfalfa? Trying to find someone to dig a well but everyone I talk to doesn't have equipment to go that deep
That is a great question! Alfalfa needs around 48 inches of annual precipitation to be successful. You'll definitely want to get some type of irrigation on it to be safe.
Interesting. Here in NY, generally hay gets higher in quality- and lower in volume- with each subsequent cutting. First cut has by far the most volume, and is often pretty coarse. Due to our wet springs, it grows like mad, early on. Not uncommon for it to be overripe, too, simply because it wasnt dry enough to make hay at the optimum time... Summers tend to be warm, dry, and humid- and temps rarely go lower than the 60s at night. So it grows slower, and puts more energy into producing leaves and flowers than stems. Grass especially. Third cut will be rocket fuel. IF you get it. Many farms will cut more often- esp for haylage. We always had oats to combine( and some wheat for extra $), then soybeans, corn silage, then feed corn. So extra cuttings had to be worked into that schedule. Fall can be either warm and dry-ish- or wet, wet, wet. Not that big a deal if its for silage- but for dry bales... Good luck!
I am a new subscriber I like your video your video is very informative and interesting
Thank you for joining, and welcome to the channel! We have more informative videos like this in the works and hope you will enjoy them as well.
Man….that was an education!
Thank you very much! That is what we were going for!
Thanks for sharing with us this information very impressive 👍
Thank you for watching!
Very impressive!
Thank you very much!
Здравствуйте! Сколько гектаров одна клетка?
There are 38.5 hectares in the one shown in this video.
Great video really enjoy the drone footage. Be careful about showing too much detail on the branding. I did a branding video and showed putting the elastics on the bull calves. RUclips pretty much shut my channel down. I was getting more unsubscribes than subs. Good luck with your channel Watching for eastern Utah
Thank you! We'll definitely watch out for that, and this will likely be the last branding video we publish. We enjoy watching your content as well from southern nevada!
@@cannonranch thanks
👍🏿⚓️
Thank you for watching!
@@cannonranch yessir! Maybe the slave drivers around here will give me a day off next spring so I can come brandin w/ ya
The work never stops, that's for sure. You and your crew are always welcome to come brand!
Nice looking country. Where in Nevada was this filmed?
Thank you! We consider ourselves to be very lucky. This was filmed at Ely Springs Range. It is located roughly 20 miles directly west of Pioche, NV.
@@cannonranch Thank you for the information.
My pleasure. Thank you for watching!
I enjoyed the video it was very informative 👍
We are happy to hear that! Thank you for watching!
Bravo! Thank you for the insight on what is next. Is Cannon Ranch still partnering with Two Pigs Custom? Share our best with the team!
Thank you for watching! The plan to create a local meat packing plant with Two Pigs Custom is still in the works. Thank you!
Any AI breeding? And if not why not ?
Yes, we do utilize AI breeding with our cattle. We like to have bulls turned out with the cows as well. It tends to increase the success rate of AI.
Looks good. Keep up the good work
Thank you, Paul!
Wow !!! Great video!!! Awesome pens!!!!
Thank you very much! You'll have to swing by and see the progress sometime!
@@cannonranch heck yeah!!!⚓️
Супер ранчо
Thank you!
Very beautiful, that’s gotta be Utah, right? Or maybe close.
Thank you! It is somewhat close to the UT border. We are located in Hiko, NV.
Very nice Mike
Thank you!
I really like a little Hereford mix with the Angus breeding . Great video
It is a great mix for running on the range and quality. Thank you!
Great explanation of the branding culture. I have a small cow calf operation in eastern Utah. I did a video on my RUclips channel showing the branding process and RUclips almost shut my channel down. You showed just the right amount Keep the cowboy life going good job
There is some beautiful country in eastern Utah. I went over to your channel and subscribed. We'll be filming another video this week out on the range. We will certainly stay the course! It is good to see your operation doing the same in getting the younger generations involved.
@@cannonranch Thanks for the sub My son as a teenager was not real interested. Now that he is married and enjoys good beef he is coming back to the ranch.
That is a very common path to take! Once kids grow up and get a family of their own, they tend to come full circle.
Keep up the good work, Any chance y’all could break down more of hay operation
Absolutely! We'll have more hay videos coming very soon.
So proud of you, Josh and the entire posse my man. Faith, Family and Freedom. Love y’all’s passion for doing it the right way and keeping the right way alive. Keep it up cowboy ❤❤
Thank you very much! We will be sure to stay the course.
Make a red heffer... Good money in Israel
They should revert the cattle to its primal state, the Aurochs
Herefords come from Herefordshire in England & you sound the second e so it sounds like Heh-reh-foud (the ou sound as used in should). Oh, and Herefordshire has shear at the end. Not shyre.

It has been us ranchers all along! haha
Where are you located.
Lincoln County Nevada
A place called Hiko, in Lincoln County, Nevada.
Thank you for filling them in!
seeing you be upset about the noodles but then immediately going to improve them is amazing and inspiring to me! i would've given up but you didn't and i really respect that! I love your videos. And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
Thank you for watching!
Please stop the background music. I’ll watch your vids then .
Noted!
what is the price of hay
It depends on the type, we have some on our website listed for around $100 per ton.
Fine looking farm! Pretty nice farmer as well 😜⚓️
Thank you! It helps when we have such great neighbors😉🚒🔥
@@cannonranch 🤣 I actually have feelings of guilt about the burnt red Pete…sorry 😬
You did nothing but help and were one of the first on the scene! We're just glad everyone made it out ok.
beautiful
Tous mes vœux est d'aller travailler dans ces genres d'entreprises.
Thank you very much!
Merci beaucoup pour le montage.❤❤❤
Thank you very much for the comment.
Bonne à vous
Thank you.
Great video. After feeding that pile out, are you content to continue without plastic covers? Or was there too much waste?
@MrJimsonweed67 Thank you! We actually covered it after this year's harvest. With the extra moisture this year it ended up creating more waste than we were happy with. Luckily feed was so plentiful on the range that it didn't impact us negatively. We just wrapped up the harvest this year and will do an update video in the coming weeks. Thank you for your comment!
How big is this alfalfa farm?
Each of our pivots is approximately 75-100 acres.
Hey, do you export to other countries? If yes, please share details.
Thank you for your comment! Please email us through our website www.cannonranch.com for any inquiries regarding hay export.
Alfaalfa is gud for milking
We love alfalfa!
Hi,I am mamun from Bangladesh.I want to import alfalfa hey.please give me yourbFidback.
Please reach out to us through our website contact form ( www.cannonranch.com/contact-us ) for inquiries on hay purchasing.
Now you're trading plastic for tires and they are really a pain. Besides you still have a lot of plastic.
You're right that plastic is not completely eliminated, but it is greatly minimized.
@@cannonranch tires hold water- water breeds mosquitoes-not good-very messy to handle
That is a great point. Thankfully we have yet to have any issue with mosquitoes or standing water, but that could be due the near constant high winds we get out here during the afternoon. The pit also has rather high walls (around 18ft), giving most of the silage cover by way of concrete block (we added two more last year). There are only a handful of tires along the top with ample spacing in-between.
Beautiful country out there
Thank you! We are blessed to be here.
Paul, enjoy your videos and that's a great looking crop! Could you elaborate more on your three way blend? You stated triticale and beardless barley... what else? Also, how do you plant into your alfalfa? I have a 1590 JD no-till that will work fine into alfalfa, just wondering if it will harm the alfalfa stand? We have a few older meadow circles we could do this on this fall. Kind regards.
Excellent question! This is something we will go into more detail on in the coming week as we begin our hay season. A lot of great hay content in the works!
hi
Hello
what is better period/stage to make alfalfa hay? plz ans.
This is something we will be covering shortly. Thank you for your question!
I learned a ton just listening to this fellow talk about hay variants, inputs, harvest times, and implications to animals digestive tracks. Thank you!
Thank you! With our first harvest starting next week, we have a lot of great hay content in the works.
Hello friend, I am going to be managing a pivot or two of alfalfa in Wyoming. I would love some advice and recommended resources that you know of that I may study and soak up all the knowledge I can.
Thank you for your comment! In terms of good resources RUclips is definitely high on the list, there is a lot of knowledgeable farmers here who share great information. Let me see if we can put together some content bases around managing pivots as well. There is a lot more that goes into managing a pivot than most would think.
@@cannonranch Thank you sir! Yes indeed, your channel has been great, do you have any other channels that run a western ranch in the intermountain west that you can recommend? And yes! I would greatly appreciate any resources that you may round up! Thank you sir.
It is my pleasure! They're filming is more vlog/lifestyle centered, but Anchorbrand Ranch isn't too far away from us. I will need to think on other channels here out west that are more focused on the education aspect.
You guys have it down to an art be great to see more videos of yours cheers
Thank you for watching! We appreciate your comment.
