Stretch Winter Pastures Stretch Winter Pastures
Dr Neal Pratt of Texas A M University urges using high quality winter pastures to best effect. Limited rainfall and short days slow growth, so careful grazing, rotating cattle to meet nutrient needs, and supplemental hay or low quality forage help extend the pasture. Electric fences aid area control and allow timely topdress fertilization for regrowth.
