PreinoculatedAlfalfas are deep-rooted perennial legumes and areconsidered the oldest, most nutritious crop that is producedfor high quality forage. When choosing alfalfas consider theDRI (disease rating index), WSI (winter-survival index 1-6)and the FD (fall dormancy 1-11). The DRI is a disease ratingof each of the six main alfalfa diseases-the higher the rating,the more resistant the alfalfa. The WSI rates the alfalfas onhow they will survive wintering-the lower the rating the morewinter-hardy they are. The FD rating is based on how soonthe alfalfa goes dormant in the season. The lower the number,the earlier in the season the alfalfa will go into dormancy, thusprotecting it from cold climate winters. The higher the number,the later the alfalfa will grow in the season, thus giving warmclimate areas long season stands.

These products all provide high producing, warm season

summer forage, ideal for emergency crop situations or in

rotations. None of these crops should be used for horses and

all require a soil temperature above 60° for several days

before planting. In order to avoid prussic acid poisoning, do

not pasture these forages until they are knee high and do not

graze regrowth occurring after frost.

These grasses make 70% of their growth after June 15th,

providing grazing in July & August, when cool season grasses

taper off. Native grasses are extensively used in pasture and

crop protection programs. Weed control is vital during estab-

lishment since native grasses are very slow establishers.

Do not graze lower than 6-8 inches.
