With the cost of soybean oil
meal and other protein-rich feeil
supplements remaining high, On-
tario livestock feeders should
consider cutting their second hay
crops early. Forage legumes can
be made into a, 25% crude 'pro-
tein concentrate which can supply
all the protein requirements of
high-producing dairy and beef
animals. Hoover, to obtain high
protein from second-cut hay,
harvest it early, says R.S. Ful-
kerson, crop scientist of Ontario
Agricultural C allege.
, Legumes should be.cut at the
early-bud stage of development,
a week or so before the normal
second-cut harvest. In studies
sponsored by the Ontario Minis-
try of Agriculture and Food,
alfalfa cut when its buds were
about the size of a pea averaged
23% crude protein (as a per-
centage of dry.matter), and pro-
duced a ton of protein per acre
over the growing season.

Delaying the harvest beyond
the early-bud stage increases the
forage yield, but dilutes the'
amount of protein in the feed.
Farmers looking for a substitute
.for protein meal should, there-
fore, harvest their legume mea-
dows early. Also, if the hay
is to be stored in •dry form,
favorable weather for field curing
is more likely earlier in the
summer.
Bird's-foot' trefoil, ladino
clover, and red clover, as well
as alfalfa, can be used for con-
centrated protein feeds. All must
be cut at the early bud stage
when studies have shown, protein
content to average respectively
23%, 27%, 21%, and 22% (as a
percentage of dry matter). Be-
cause the leaves of these crops
contain about 70% of all the pro-
tein in the crop, they should be
carefully preserved when the
crop is stored, as dry hay or
silage.
Legumes are excellent sour-
ees 'of essential amino acids.
These early-cut protein supple-
ments, are as digestible as most
grains and should be fed to
balance the ration - in the same
manner as high-priced, pur-
chased supplements. •
