Timing of Alfalfa Cut for Hay and Fall Snow Traps
Agricultural notes explain first cut should occur in the bud stage, usually in late June, to maximize quality and yield. Second cut focuses on root reserves for winter survival. avoid fall cutting during a five week window before the first killing frost to prevent winterkill. Late cutting risks insufficient snow cover. leave 2 to 3 ft uncut strips as snow traps. Also notes provincial listing of 1988 U Pick Berry farms for strawberries and raspberries.
