Couldn’t say no to 7 acres of free grass even if it will only be suckler cow belly fill.

Droughted maize drilled into "sprayed off" lucerne. The lucerne regrowth was going to clog up the forager maize header, so we are mowing the lot and going to try to pick it up with the JF forager. There are some half decent milky cobs in the maize.View attachment 1055229

The rest of the lucerne is now over 50% flowered, so cut and put 3 into 1 when still green to avoid leaf shatter, and hope for rain and a good 4th cut.
When everything else is brown and dying, the lucerne is the one bright (green) spot.
