Our Goals For You
TO PROMOTE A LIVING SOIL
Soils provide many important functions, the most obvious is that of supporting plant life. A living soil is composed of millions of dynamic creatures that live and interact with each other. Soil management and health should be a major aspect of your operation. Routine soil tests are important management tools to ensure productive plants. Investing in your soil means an investment in the end product. A soil that is not balanced and healthy will reflect in the yield and quality of your pastures and thus your animals.
TO CAPITALIZE ON REGROWTH
Regrowth is a great opportunity to supply more forage to your animals. Regrowth can be achieved through proper utilization and grazing management. A grazing system that allows for rest and recovery of your pastures is key. Plants should be grazed down to a certain height and the animals removed to support a successful regrowth cycle. The regrowth of plants can create multiple grazing opportunities for your animals and can even extend the season. Take advantage of the surplus growth of forages for animal production.
TO GET A RETURN ON INVESTMENT
The overall goal should be to raise animals in a way that is sustainable and profitable. The inputs of your operation should create added value to your system. Selecting for cultivars that are flexible, forgiving, persistent, palatable and have regrowth potential means greater benefits and lower cost per acre. Our agronomist is available to analyze your system and give recommendations on how PGG Seeds cultivars might fit to meet your goals. Contact John Snider or your local dealer for assistance.
