sutemfcnt of is due to the county s production of livestock one of the main fac tors in profitable livestock prod uction is an ample supply of pas ture during the normal midsum mer slump in production now is the time for your pas ture program there are several factvs that should be considered by taking advantage of several types of pasture it is possible to lengthen the grazing season take care of the midsummer slump in production and allow the tm proved pasture fields to rest pre venting this deterioration from over grazing the basic factors in pasture planning are the pasture require ments of the herd and the capa bililtes of the soil in the case of the dairy farm one of the first considerations is plannjngapas ture program that will give ade quale grazing in midsummer tm best sources of summer pasture ire seeded or long term pasture and aftermath from a hay pasture mixture the main point is do not rely on any one source of pas ture but use several types of pas ture improved varieties of forage seed will help to give a more pro ductive crop program alfalfa has long been the main forage crop in this area the two vane ties recommended for halton farms this car are vernal and du puits for long terms stands vernal alfalfa is the one to use the reason for this is because of its abiht to sta v mixtures it is bacterial wilt itsisunt and as a result will provide a more pro ductive mixture v here wilt is a problem it is a leafy fine stem med variet and noted for quail t the variet du pui s is a french variety and is being rec omm ended for certain purposes in halton normal i it
