Dairy Husbandry Calendar for September
Do not pasture new seeding too short and leave growth to hold snow. If pastures are thin or you must remove cows from new seeding begin feeding silage when silo is filled. Sow a rye patch for early pasture next spring. Alfalfa cut too late or too often risks winter kill. avoid after Sept 1 in Iowa except special cases. Monitor cows due to calve this fall and provide ample feed in clean stalls. September is the month to clean, disinfect, and whitewash the barn.
