Subject: RE: fescue


Southwest Missouri
Back in 1998, we ammoniated some fescue stubble. the crude protein was 11.1. In looking at the hay test,I see that we also had some fescue hay tested that was 9.4. That was too long ago for me to remember for sure when the fescue hay was baled.

The University of Missouri has some publications for Anhydrous Ammonia Treatment. If you can not find it, I will fax you the sheets that I have in my file folder.

I would think fescue stubble and wheat straw would be about the same.

Added before posting.

I found where we treated wheat straw in 1995. It had crude protein of 12.76 on the as-fed basis. 14.49 on the dry-matter basis. The same year ammoniated fescue was 13.79 and 15.4 respectively.
