Good Alfalfa Hay Depends on Timely Cutting
Extension notes from Michigan State College stress timely cutting for alfalfa hay. Delays reduce leaf retention and quality, with first cut near bloom. Second cut should occur before August 25, September best for stand health, October cuts less effective, and leftover material can mulch fields.

Hay Satisfactory for Silage When Corn Is Lacking
Farmers may fill silos with part of the hay crop this year if corn silage is scarce. If planting enough silage corn is not possible, hay silage can provide feed equal in value to corn silage. Feed trials show corn and grass silage comparability.
Advantages and cautions of corn and silage crops
The corn crop offers the greatest tonnage per acre among silo crops. Silage from grasses and legumes uses less labor but more land and more spoilage, needing preservatives such as molasses. Molasses amounts vary by crop, and silage handling requires timely cutting, careful loading, sealing, and top packing to limit spoilage.
