Summer-dormant tall fescue grass shows promise for pasture improvements
Date:11/26/2007

ions at least resemble the Mediterranean climate to restore devastated rangeland.

The grasses must be grazed in February and March during their peak production, Malinowski said. When they start bloom in mid-April, the forage quality will go down, so it is important to use them before they bloom.

The forage quality is similar to wheat, so while cattle weight-gain is expected to be similar, he said they do not have any long-term data yet.

The seeds must be planted in a weed-free environment, as they are not strong initially, he said. Also, producers who do plant this combination will be tempted to graze it the first spring, but are advised against doing so to give the grass time to establish itself.
