for animal feedfor pasture

Tall fescue is a relatively deep-rooted bunch grass found throughout much of the U.S. It can tolerate a wide range of soils and fertility. It matches well with forage legumes, especially red and ladino clover. KY-31 tall fescue makes up 75% of all tall fescue grown. Under proper management, it can be a productive and profitable grass. However, with new low endophyte varieties, other tall fescues should be considered. The endophyte found in KY-31 is a fungus that grows between the plant cells and makes it tough, but it also reduces animal performance and causes animal health problems in extreme cases. KY-31 is not recommended for horses. All other low-endophyte or friendly-endophyte tall fescues are safe for horses or livestock. Planting Date March - May, Aug. - Sept.
