PR-668: 2013 Cool-Season Grass Grazing Tolerance Report

Garry Lacefield, Gene Olson, Tim Phillips, Ray Smith | December 4, 2013 (New)

Cool-season grasses such as tall fescue and orchardgrass are the primary pasture grasses in Kentucky. Other species such as perennial ryegrass, festulolium, and prairie brome can be used in pasture systems. Little is known about the effect of variety on the grazing tolerance of these cool-season grass species. The purpose of this report is to summarize current research on the grazing tolerance of varieties of tall fescue, orchardgrass, perennial ryegrass, and other species when they are subjected to continuous, heavy grazing pressure by cattle within the grazing season. The main focus will be on plant stand survival.

PR-672: 2013 Kentucky Soybean Performance Tests
