Green forages cut hog costs in Ohio trials
Experiments at the Ohio experiment station show green forage crops such as alfalfa clover rape soybeans and bluegrass reduce pork production costs. In an 11 week midsummer test clover pasture replaced 71 percent of corn per 100 pounds gain, rape 64 and soybeans 54. All hogs got corn plus pasture and still gained cheaper than dry lot grain feeding. Rape offers long grazing, an acre feeds about 30 hogs for three months, soybeans graze from July 1 for about ten weeks, and bluegrass suits early spring but is drought sensitive.
