watershed specialist Herschel George argues for relocating winter cattle feeding away from streams. He notes hay waste, manure buildup, erosion, and water quality damage from near-stream sites, recommending troughs, rest rotations, and cost-share programs to encourage moving feeding areas higher and farther from water.
K-State Research and Extension presents a self evaluation check-up for livestock producers to gauge regulatory and environmental concerns. The online survey at oznet.ksu.edu and paper copies via the Franklin County Conservation District offer education without collecting personal data. Herschel George will give free insulated mugs to the first 10 producers who complete the check-up.
The most important factor in producing quality native grass hay is harvest date. Late cuts reduce crude protein and affect species composition, while earlier cuts boost yield and quality. For tallgrass prairie haylands in Kansas, July 20 is the latest recommended cutting date to allow root reserve replenishment and future regrowth.
A continuation notes that soil health is a living system needing commitment, crop diversity, limited tillage, and time to recover. It recommends contacting local NRCS or conservation district offices at the county USDA Service Center. George Davis of NRCS in Salina is cited as a conservation agronomist.
