Forages (190 words) |
 | The forage industry is the major agricultural enterprise in Pennsylvania and in the northeastern United States. |
| Forage crops constitute the major feed component in the diet of these animals, making forages the backbone of Pennsylvania's agriculture and rural economy. |
| Forages are environmentally friendly in that they can reduce soil erosion, pesticide usage, and fertilizer application. |
| Ohio Agronomy Guide, Forage Production (11678 words) |
| Forage stands can be established with many different types of drills and seeders, provided they are adjusted to plant seed at an accurate depth and in firm contact with the soil. |
| Forage sorghums should be planted in rows with row-crop planters to facilitate harvest and minimize lodging. |
| Fresh forage is generally higher in cyanide than in silage or hay because cyanide is volatile and dissipates as the forage dries. |
