Description
Manage your grass to its full potential.
To make silage of the highest quality it needs to be cut at the right time and fermented well: undertaking pre-cut silage grass analysis can help to, optimise nutritional value and monitor how crops are maturing, taking into account:
- Effects of fertiliser residues.
- Availability of sugar, for a good fermentation.
- Length of wilt needed.
- Benefit of using an additive.
Test includes: DM, Crude Protein, ME, Sugars, NDF, ADF, Oil A, Free Nitrate – Fresh.
Kingshay recommends that grass should not be cut before nitrates have decreased to below 0.10%. Above 0.25% Nitrate N cutting should be delayed and another fresh grass sample should be taken after 3 to 5 days.
Analysing Fresh Grass for Grazing – we go to great lengths to know what we are feeding our cows during the winter, analysing silage and carefully balancing the ration to meet the cows needs, so why do it differently during the summer? Monitoring energy (ME) and protein in your grass will help you decide if any supplementation feeds are necessary. If so, how much to feed.
