Jarnagin Urges Reserve On Feed For Cold Spells Dr Milton P. Jarnagin, Exten¬ sion Service animal husband¬ man, has some words of encour¬ agement for Georgia livestock farmers who have been worried over recent pasture damage. Dr. Jarnagin points out that “the pa«t season has been the most unfavorable for winter grazing since our livestock owners began giving serious at¬ tention to this valuable source of cheap feed.” According to weather reports, he continued, new records were set for low temperatures in November. De¬ cember was well below the aver¬ age. The result was a lot of dis¬ appointment in the amount of feed that was available in pas¬ tures during the winter. “Adversity can be a great teacher, though,” Dr. Jarnagin said. “This unpredictable cold spell so early in the fall can be a blessing in disguise since it teaches, in no uncertain terms, he importance of having a re¬ serve of feed available. There are two periods in the year when a shortage may occur. On an average, pastures become short at the end of the summer grazing season; and there is al¬ ways a period in the middle of winter when growth in negli¬ gible.”. Dr. Jarnagin continued that “much can be done to guard against these shortages by in¬ telligent management of the pastures.” He pointed out that grazing should always be kept ahead of the cattle. This can be done, he said, by allowing a lit¬ tle surplus of growth to accu¬ mulate through May, June and early July. Dr. Jarnagin suggests that to guard against the feed shortage In the winter an accumulation of growth should be alowed to take place through October and early November. When the dor¬ mant growing period is reached this feed would be available for late November, December and January. He went on to say that "in ad¬ dition to good management, there should be a reserve of stored feed to meet these con¬ ditions. It may be in the form of cured hay or grass silage. The period of greatest growth of grass and clover takes place in the spring and early summer. In order to get the most out of the grazing it must be kept tender. This can be accomplished by frequent mowings.” The livestock expert pointed out that many landowners in the pa^t have allowed clippings to fall on the to add to the mulch. It would be better, he believes, to pre¬ serve the clippings in the form of cured hay or grass silage. If the weather is rainy the grass goes into the sile; if clear the grass may be cured for hay. “With the amount of growth that has taken place during the few warm days since the first freeze last year, it is now apparent that we were worse scared than hurt,” Dr. Jarnagin said. All of the elder seedings that were well established hate shown a minimum of damage. It was pointed out that even temporary grazing crops that were planted early and had formed a vigorous root system show but little damage. Many plants were destroyed, of course, where the plantings were made late and germina¬ tion had taken place. Dr. Jarnagin advised that the adverse weather season should in no wise discourage the plant ing of more temporary and per¬ manent pastures next fall. “These pastures are still our best source of an abundance of cheap feed of high quality. And it can be produced at so low a cost that it will insure maxi¬ mum profits,” he said.
