Testimonial
"I planted Sweet-Forever BMR in late May. The 1st cutting in early August averaged about 9 tons per acre, and the 2nd cutting in early October also averaged 9 tons per acre at 32% dry matter. Recent test show 11% protein and RFV 89% on dry matter basis. I use it in my milk cow ration in place of wheatledge. The cows eat it well. It is a very easy and inexpensive crop to grow. I plan to grow it again in 2013." --- Andy (Hereford, TX)
