1 Cover Crops, Forges, nd Grzing Dr. Kim Cssid MSU Forge Specilist Is it cover crop or forge? Both! The only iologicl difference etween cover crop nd forge is whether you will hrvest ny of it for oveground livestock (forge) or leve it ll for the underground livestock (cover crop). All forges re cover crops Cover Crop Benefits of Forges Suppress weeds Legumes fix nitrogen (vi roots!) Prevent erosion (roots!) Build soil orgnic mtter (roots!) Improve soil physicl structure (roots!) Cpture nd hold soil nutrients (roots!) Increse wter infiltrtion nd holding cpcity of soils (roots!) And much more Chrcteristics of idel cover crops for forge 1) Fst growing, vigorous seedlings 2) Rech hrvestle iomss within 6 dys 3) Do not self seed 4) Acceptle nutritive vlue (energy, protein, minerls) for intended livestock 5) Acceptle preservtion chrcteristics s hy or silge 6) Mngele toxicity risk to livestock 7) Regrowth/multiple hrvests cn e plus 8) Esy to terminte How is grzing different from hrvesting? Grzing hrvests less iomss (25 75% utiliztion) thn hy Grzing returns most nutrients to the field 5% of N 85% of P nd K Much of returned nutrient is in plnt ville forms Nutrients re sptilly redistriuted Hoof trffic is different from wheel trffic Grzing requires nimls, fence, wter, nd different mngement skills Kim Cssid, MSUE, cssid@msu.edu 1
2 Where re your opportunities? Cover crops cn e plnted nytime soil is exposed After row crop hrvest (corn, soyen, whet) Into existing row crop (frostseed, fly on, highoy seeder) Nurse crops protect new perennil seedings Wht could go wrong? Mny cn e redy to grze or cut (rssics, sorghums, teff) within 45 6 dys Cn e owned or rented ground Crop Insurnce Cution! Be wre of use restrictions on cover crops plnted under crop insurnce progrms. New Frm Bill is expected to chnge the current policy. Two different timing scenrios 1) During ctive cover crop growth period: Mechnicl hrvest nd grzing re llowed s long s sufficient regrowth occurs to meet residue trgets t time of cover crop termintion. Exmples: 1) YES grze rye in fll, let it grow ck in spring efore termintion 2) NO grze turnips lte in fll, destroy crowns, no regrowth 2) At termintion: Cution! Michign (Zone 4) cover crops must e terminted no lter thn 5 dys fter plnting of the insured crop. Approved cover crop termintion methods must result in NO REGROWTH. Methods: hericide, tillge, winterkill Mechnicl hrvest (hy, silge) is llowed s termintion method s long s NO REGROWTH occurs fter hrvest Grzing llowed s termintion method ONLY IF you hve three yers of on frm documenttion tht grzing s termintion does not reduce your crop yields AND letter of pprovl from two g experts. Consult your insurnce gent efore proceeding. Soil Compction Does hoof or wheel trffic cncel out soil structure enefit of cover crop? It depends Surfce compction cn occur if nimls re present while ground is wet Freeze thw cycle tends to correct the compction Methods to reduce compction risk from hrvesting cover crops 1) Use no till 2) Sty off wet ground 3) Grze while ground is frozen 4) Use mnged grzing to prevent concentrted niml trffic for extended time rottion, move supplement/wter sources Pesticides Pesticides used on row crops my hve long residul with grzing/forge hrvest restriction tht extends into cover crop period Pesticides used on cover crop itself my not e leled for grzing or hrvested forge Kim Cssid, MSUE, cssid@msu.edu 2
3 Weeds nd Toxins Universl concerns (psture, hy, silge) Weeds ryegrsses, cerel rye, hiry vetch, uckwhet Nitrte toxicity sorghums, smll grins, rssics Photosensitiztion uckwhet Concerns on psture only Blot whet, nnul clovers, medics, rssic Photosensitiztion immture forge rpe Neurologicl prolems/dermtitis hiry vetch Prussic cid poisoning sorghum, sudngrss, flx Concerns with hy/silge only Vitmin K deficiency sweetclover hy or silge (moldy) High moisture content rssics Fertilizer Costs Biomss production of most nnul forges is driven y fertility Cover crops don t usully get fertilizer Soil ph >6. for rssics nd grsses >6.5 for legumes Nitrogen yield improves with 25 5 l/cre of N t plnting for rssics nd grsses Phosphorus & Potssium Soil Test! Hopefully dequte on well mintined row crop ground On poor ground, follow soil test Boron my e needed for rssics on sndy or low OM soil Cn I ensile (insert nme of plnt here)? In most cses, YES! Criticl requirement for successful ensiling must e le to reduce crop moisture to 4 6% t the silo Wet hylge/lege increses clostridil fermenttion Most rssics re too wet (8 95% moisture in field) My work if mixed with dry(er) forge t the silo Relile nnul silge crops for Michign Forge sorghum, sudngrss, or sudex (use BMR vrieties for est forge qulity) Ots/pe, triticle Three Tips for Better Blege 1. Reduce prticle size Instll re cutter system on ler to cut forge to in lengths (improves fermenttion nd DM retention in low sugr or dry forges) 2. Mximize le density (>1 l DM/ft 3 ) Idel: Ble t 5 6% moisture If <5% moisture poor fermenttion, dry stems cn poke holes in wrp, low eroic stility when fed (ok if consumed w/in 24 hr) If >6% moisture higher risk of clostridil fermenttion nd otulism ded cows Reduce ground speed Increse PTO speed } revolutions/le to increse density Mintin constnt le size (especilly in line les) Three Tips for Better Blege 3. Exclude oxygen Wrp within 24 hrs (sooner is etter) Use t lest 6 lyers of 1 mil, UV resistnt wrp. Use more lyers if moisture <5%. High Moisture Wrpped Hy = Low Moisture Blege 1) Too wet for hy too dry for effective cid production in fermenttion yet it does not spoil 2) We re not sure why it works 3) AIR-TIGHT is ESSENTIAL, need t lest 6 mil of plstic wrp lyer, mye more 4) If ir cn get to the le, it will mold nd likely comust! Monitor wrp for holes during storge & ptch them Orient le lines N S to reduce UV plstic degrdtion on southern exposure Store wrpped les on smooth ground with good dringe 5) This product hs poor eroic stility nd should e consumed within 24 hr of opening le Kim Cssid, MSUE, cssid@msu.edu 3
