A Country Gentleman summary cites a Edinburgh Journal of Agriculture report stating hay should be cut when grasses are in blossom to maximize sugar and starch content for cattle. It notes farmers like C N Bement, Sanford Howard, W H Lotham, and J Pratt advocate early cutting to preserve nutriment and root vigor, with practical dairy success.

Farmers debate timothy hay cutting times and grain feeding

A long reader letter argues timothy hay should be cut before bloom and green hay yields fatter cattle. The author recalls experiments with early versus late cutting, venting on stables and ventilation, and reports wintering sheep on wheat straw with oil cake.
