Pasture Walk at Rolling Oaks Farms
Pasture Walk at Rolling Oaks Farms
Spring is a great time to assess pastures to observe how they recovered from fall and winter conditions and to identify areas in need of improvement. Walking pastures can help producers to identify bare patches, weeds, and desirable forage and guide in-season management decisions.
