Sunflower Stalks 2/12/21

We have had the entire cow herd out on sunflower stalks for about 2 weeks. This is the first time we’ve ever grazed sunflower stalks and so far the cows are looking great. It took a solid week for them to figure out how to graze the stalks, but there is plenty of grass waterways and sunflower heads on the ground to balance it all out. The weather is a major role in this whole plan working. Its been 40 degrees and above since they have been out there. The ten day looks to continue this trend. Aftermath grazing has become one of the important parts of planning out our grazing months.
