The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service – Bexar/Wilson County Hay Testing Campaign is currently underway. This is a great opportunity to have your hay analyzed prior to this fall and winter. Understanding the nutritional value of dry forage can save you a lot of dollars on supplemental feed.
There is no limit on the number of samples a producer can submit. Hay samples will be analyzed at a reduced cost of $5/each for crude protein, ADF, NDF, TDN and an estimate of digestibility. Dr. Larry Redmon, Extension Forage Specialist will be conducting an educational program on Managing for High Quality Hay and discussing the results of the campaign on Tuesday, September 27th. Participants will have the option of attending the program in Floresville or San Antonio.
If you are interested in participating, contact the Bexar or Wilson County Extension office for more information and sampling materials.
