(Thread 1/4) As we enter the fall, many producers are considering grazing alfalfa regrowth. Grazing alfalfa - even in the fall - does come with a few manageable risks. http://www.beefresearch.ca/blog/fear-of-bloat-costs-more-money-than-actual-cases-of-bloat-do/">https://www.beefresearch.ca/blog/fear...

Reduce risks and ensure cattle have full bellies when they are moved into a different pasture; observe cattle closely; and avoid major dietary shifts. #legume">http://www.beefresearch.ca/research-topic.cfm/grazing-management-48 #legume">https://www.beefresearch.ca/research-...

Finally, consider the plant& #39;s needs. Avoid grazing alfalfa until after a killing frost to prevent winterkill. Also, don& #39;t graze dormant alfalfa too short which can lead to crown damage and additional winterkill. http://www.beefresearch.ca/resources/webinars/webinar-detail.cfm?id=57">https://www.beefresearch.ca/resources...
