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...

    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.

    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

    • @cannonranch
      @cannonranch 3 дня назад

      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.

  • @pyroman6000
    @pyroman6000 19 дней назад

    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!
