What is the yield potential of Bermuda grass in S.E. Oklahoma?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQUnder high fertility, some of the newer varieties of Bermuda have the potential to produce above 6 tons of forage when high rates of nitrogen are applied on deep, moderately drained soils. With no fertility, on average, we expect 1 ton of production/year on Bermuda grass pastures. With the rainfall we receive in S.E. Oklahoma, 3 to 4 tons/ac is easy to accomplish under the proper soil fertility practices.

Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQIt would be best if you measured each of you pastures yourself. Your county extension educator can provide you with instructions on how it is done. You can also go to your local N.R.C.S. office and find your pasture in the county soil survey. After determining what soil type the pasture is, you can then find the table that list average yields for native grass for that soil type.
Related QuestionsWhat is the best temperature for Bermuda grass?
Jacobsen Golf & Turf: Dr. Milt F.A.Q.Remember, in the Spring, high ambient air temperatures promote crown and leaf development at the expense of the root system in Bermuda grass. When soil temperatures rise above 65°F (18 C) root growth starts. The plant is able to pick up appropriate nutrients and access deeper soil-water resources. When soil temperatures are above 65°F , more aggressive plant growth can be met with more aggressive cultural practices.

ANSWERS TO CHEESE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY SELF ASSESSMENTThis can be expressed as the maximum amount of cheese of satisfactory composition that can be obtained from a given quantity of milk. This is directly dependant on the concentration of casein and fat in the milk. The value for casein - 0.1 approximates to a theoretical loss of 4% casein and a casein retention of approximately 96%. e.g consider milk containing 2.5% casein, then the loss in casein = 2.5-0.1/2.5x100 = 96% .

Related QuestionsI have native grass and Bermuda grass in separate pastures, how can I best utilize the two?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQThere are many management scenarios that would work but one of the simplest would be to graze the native from April until June 30, then let it rest until after frost. This will lead to a healthy native grass stand. The Bermuda portion would be fertilized May 1 and August 30. It would then be grazed from July through November. Cattle would then wintered on the dormant native grass with the addition of a grain based supplement. Any left over Bermuda grass would be grazed as needed.
Related QuestionsHow do I decide between a cool season grass like fescue or Bermuda, a warm season grass?
Valley SodNevada is classified as a Transition Zone because of its mild seasonal climate. Cool season grasses grow faster in the spring and fall and slow down in the summer/winter. Most people prefer the look of a green yard all year round without having to overseed. Fescue will stay green during the winter if properly fertilized before late fall. Bermuda goes dormant in the winter and requires an overseeding of rye grass to keep the yard green.
Related QuestionsWhen is the best time to sprig a Bermuda grass pasture?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQMid February through Mid April is the best time. Later than this, we run into problems with excessive annual grass competition and moisture loss during the time the Bermuda grass is trying to spread.
Related QuestionsWhen is the best time to fertilize Bermuda grass?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQThat depends! In pastures that have no cool season grasses in them like ryegrass, fertilizing from Mid April to the first of May would be recommended. If the pasture has ryegrass, fertilizing for the Bermuda growth should take place May 1 to June 1. If fertilized earlier than this the ryegrass will use up that fertilizer before the Bermuda has a chance to begin growing rapidly. If fall forage is needed, fertilizing Bermuda in late august can provide high quality grazing well into December.
Related QuestionsWhat is the protein content of Bermuda grass in the winter?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQUnfertilized old growth Bermuda, will have protein contents in the 3 to 5 % range. Fall fertilized Bermuda has been known to hold protein contents of 10 to 12% all the way up into January. Probably not, sprigging a Bermuda grass pasture can cost upwards of $100 per acre, and the loss of a years worth of production. If the pasture has Bermuda grass plants scattered throughout the field, it would be more cost effective to properly fertilize it.
Related QuestionsHow do I plant those tiny little Bermuda grass seeds?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQThe best way would be to plant it with a specialized seeder that can handle small seed. One brand is a Brillion seeder that drops the seed and a set of packer wheels push it into contact with the soil. If a seeder is un-available, scattering the seed with a three point whirly bird seeder can be effective. Start with the gate on the seeder closed as tightly as it will go and still allow seed to come out. Test it on a few acres and adjust it open if enough seed is not being applied.
Related QuestionsHow do I kill Bahia out of my Bermuda grass pasture?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQDisk it in September or October and let it winter kill. You will not get 100% control and you will essentially be re-sprigging the Bermuda grass. Also expect new plants to come up from seed. There are some chemicals that are active against Bahia. Check with your extension educator for chemical options.
Related QuestionsHow do I over-seed ryegrass on my Bermuda grass pasture?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQRyegrass can be mixed with fertilizer and applied to the pasture through the fertilizer spreader or it can be spread with a three point whirly bird type seeder. It can also be planted by a drill with a small seed box but care should be taken to not plant it deeper than ? inch. With broadcast seeding, pulling a chain harrow over the pasture after seeding will increase germination and survival of the plants.

Related QuestionsShould I plow up my Native grass stand and plant an improved pasture grass like Bermuda or fescue?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQProbably not, since native grass in good condition needs little or no management inputs, there is no cheaper way to put forage in an animal if you have plenty of acres. On the other hand, if you have few acres, and must raise a large number of animals on a small acreage, then an introduced grass might fit you better.
Related QuestionsWhat type of extra yield does SEER Rockdust give to potatoes, corn, barley, grass?
F.A.Q.We cannot say for farming land of differing soil types. Research needs to be done, records kept and samples taken by those who experiment with it. We have a "poor soil" terrace here, ph 4.5. Plants, even peas, do not do well. A 2 year dose of SEER Rockdust was applied to one half and we doubled the yield by the 2nd growing season. The 2 year dose was used up within the 2 years so we have now put a 10 year dose on the same half and we will see if we can more than double the yield.

How much Bermuda grass can I grow with 150 lb of Ammonium nitrate applied per acre?
Oklahoma Cooperative OSU Extension FAQlbs of Amm. Nitrate is about 50 units of N. A good rule of thumb is that for every addition 50 units of N added, we would expect a ton of production. We normally expect Bermuda grass to produce 1 ton without fertilizer so adding 50 units of N should increase our production to 2 tons per acre. A better strategy would be to add 100 units of N to increase production to 3 tons per acre since the Bermuda is more efficient at these higher levels of nitrogen fertility.
