Soybeans Valued as Hay for Beef Cattle Feeds
A Iowa State College Extension circular on Feeding Soybeans notes soybean hay, when mature with 20 to 25 percent beans, is a good substitute for clover or alfalfa for beef cattle but should be fed in limited amounts to avoid digestive upset. Soybean straw also has value as roughage for breeding and stock cattle, though it contains less leaf and protein.

Legumes Benefit From Fall Lime to Neutralize Soil
Dr. P. E. Brown of Iowa State College urges fall liming to neutralize soil acidity for several months before seeding alfalfa or clover next spring. He notes that legumes struggle on acidic soils unless lime is applied and stresses proper soil testing to determine lime needs. Fine ground limestone should be used with at least 60 percent dust and particles larger than 9 mesh.
