[AT] Selling hay

[Louis R Godena]

Hey, that reminds me.  I plowed up a cornfield last fall and planted 
buckwheat, which came in pretty thick.  Does anyone know if this makes good 
feed?   And when should it be cut.  It's gotten really tall (about 50") and 
I am doing a second cutting of orchard grass and alfalfa in the field next 
to it.  Does this buckwheat cure well?  And do the cows like it?

Thanks,
Louis Godena
