Treasure State Farm and Livestock Irrigated Pastures Boost Milk
Montana State College reports irrigated pasture as a solution to mid summer grazing and a profitable investment. Extension agronomist A J Ogaard notes dryland grass dwindles when feed is scarce and two to three acres per cow helps during drought. Edson Gould of St Ignatius says fifteen acres fed 230 cows calves and sows with no hay and milk increased about 20 percent while L R Sturm of Poison observed five extra pounds per cow daily.
