After severe drought stressed much of the northern U.S. plains this summer, a recent bout of precipitation has left pastures a bit greener – a sight not seen by many in 2021. The new growth has producers wondering if grazing is advantageous, or if they should leave the renewed stems alone. The answer, according to a North Dakota State State Extension specialist, is variable. Producers will need to know their type of rangeland before making any late-season decisions. Kentucky bluegrass or brome grass should be fine to graze, as long as no overgrazing occurs. Meanwhile, native grass species might be better off left alone. Cool-season native grasses should not be grazed, to ensure the plant has time to establish tillers – the way the plant will initiate growth next spring. Experts note, as a general rule of thumb, that grasses should not be grazed below the second node (between the first and second leaf).
