North Dakota State University NDSU Extension Service Know Your Forages AS-991 , March 1990 Deanne Morse , Extension Dairy Specialist Kevin Sedivec , Extension Rangeland Management Specialist Animal consumption of hay or silage depends on many things. One major determinant of forage intake is its quality. The nutrient composition of a forage helps to explain expected animal performance. Determining the chemical composition of forages is important. The amount of each nutrient in a forage, energy, protein, and mineral composition, needs to be determined before a diet can be balanced. Fiber content enables a nutritionist to estimate feed intake, digestibility of feed, energy content, and expected animal performance. The most frequently asked questions regarding forage analysis include: Why should I have my forage analyzed? What components of the forage do I need to know? How do I get a representative sample of my forage? What is NIR and how does it differ from wet chemistry? Where can I get my forages evaluated? What recommendations exist for use of forage analysis results?

Late fall cuttings, little snow cover, ice cover and fluctuating temperatures are all conditions that may have an effect on these fields but it is the weather in March and April which will determine the condition that the fields will be in by summer. The best option is to use the existing stand if at all possible. These plants have a good root system and will grow the best. They can be thickened by frost seeding or overseeding legume seed. Another alternative to encourage forage fields to produce well, is to fertilize them. Phosphorus and potash applied during the summer will strengthen plants so that they will better overwinter. Nitrogen applied in the spring and after each cut will encourage grass growth. A minimum of 75 kg/ha is required to see a response. In both these options, you are using the existing stand and improving on its production. Even if all the legumes are gone from a field, yields of 4.5 tonnes/ha (4 tons/ac) can be harvested if timothy is fertilized with nitrogen in this manner.

49. Endophyte Toxins In Grass Seed Fields And Straw General introduction to endophytes and discussion of problems with pasturing animals on tall fescue and perennial ryegrass, which may be infected with high levels of an endophyte that produces toxins harmful to livestock. http://www.forages.css.orst.edu/Topics/Pastures/Species/Grasses/Animal_issues/En

EM 8598 June 1995 Endophyte Toxins in Grass Seed Fields and Straw Effects on Livestock S. Aldrich-Markham and G. Pirelli Both grass seed growers and livestock producers can benefit by grazing animals on grass seed fields and feeding grass seed straw. However, problems can develop if livestock consume turf varieties of tall fescue and perennial ryegrass. Some turf varieties are infected with high levels of endophyte, which produces toxins harmful to livestock. What is endophyte? Endophyte is a fungus that lives inside the grass plant. The relationship between grass and endophyte is symbiotic; that is, it benefits both. Although, the endophyte does not harm the grass, it produces toxins that are harmful to livestock. Since it does not affect the appearance of the grass plant, its presence can be detected only by laboratory analysis. Some grass varieties grown for turf seed have high levels of endophyte. The reason is that infected plants can have increased growth, increased drought tolerance, and resistance to certain insects-qualities for which plant breeders select. All of the forage varieties of tall fescue and perennial ryegrass produced in Oregon, however, are endophyte-free or have very low levels of endophyte. Breeders of forage varieties have been selecting out infected fields since the 1970s, when the connection between endophyte in tall fescue and a livestock disease called fescue toxicity was discovered.
