Crabgrass and Clover

Monday, August 10, 2020
Hello friends,
              Crabgrass and clover in your lawn is less than desirable.  Especially if you live in a nice neighborhood.  In our pastures, it is awesome.  The crabgrass is high in carbohydrates and the clover is high in protein and the cows produce a lot of milk on the combination.  This warm wet weather is causing them both to go crazy and the cows are chowing down.  That’s mostly good, except we are trying to dry up a couple of cows to give them their pregnancy vacations, and they just keep producing!  We give them almost no grain, we milk them less and less often, and they still have milk.  Mind you, I’m not complaining.  It sure beats dried up dormant grass with deep cracks in the ground!…..
