Hi, this is Kelly Gareth Extreme Ag. We're out here doing something for the first time we've ever done a garland cattle.
00:00:05
We're chopping sorghum in the past. We've only chopped corn silage this year in the effort to try to have a double crop.
00:00:11
Uh, you know, like my good friends in the South, Chad Henderson or Johnny Verell, we first put rye in here last fall.
00:00:16
We chopped the rye right around Memorial Day. We then drilled it to sorghum and now we're chopping the sorghum.
00:00:23
It's making about 17 ton of the acre. We think. I was hoping for 20, but there's a few things I've learned
00:00:29
this year that I should do better. I should have probably tried to kill the rye a little bit. The allopath effect
00:00:34
probably held the sorghum back a little bit. I should have had a little bit different or better chemical program.
00:00:38
We did have a little grass come in here that we didn't want. And now I want to talk to you about the nutrient density
00:00:44
that we're trying to obtain with this crop we sprayed on here. Calcium, magnesium, nitro salt, bore on copper, iron, zinc,
00:00:51
Molly, backbone, and BioE. Quite a recipe of products that Patrick and Richie had to put out here,
00:00:57
but it's all in the effort to minerally balance this crop to, so then when we feed it to the cattle,
00:01:03
we can raise nutrient dense cattle. I've talked a lot about that, about producing better food, doing a better job, farming to do produce better food.
00:01:10
It isn't all about quantity. Some of it is about quality, 00:01:14.425 --> 00:01:16.245
