Good Range Saves On Poultry Costs In Hardin County

Hardin county farmers could save from one to twelve dollars per hundred pullets by providing good range this year. County extension agent Dick Pulse notes a 2 to 12 percent drop in feed consumption with proper forage. Iowa State College extension poultrymen recommend bromegrass ladino clover and alfalfa, avoid birdsfoot trefoil, keep range clean and unused by poultry for two years, ensure slope for drainage, and plant four to six rows of corn around the edge. An acre per 400 birds is advised.
