Fescue is a cool-season hardy grass that can withstand intensive grazing. Approximately 60% of the annual forage production occurs from March-May. Fescue has a "slump" during the summer when production is stopped, the plant goes into reproductive phase, and animal performance can be negatively impacted. In an ideal production system, high quality forage needs to be provided to cattle year-round to maximize overall production. One method to offset the "summer slump" with fescue is for producers to provide warm-season pastures and cool-season pastures and rotate cattle between the two . . .
