WALK THEM OFF THE FARM
Marketing the feed crop is as important as growing it.
Without buyers who are able to pay good prices for farm
products, farmers may lose money on a crop. This is especially
true of feed crops, and efficient farmers know that the best
way to sell their feed is through livestock. Not only do they
receive a better price for their beef, but it is one of the best
ways to practice soil conservation. Livestosk turn back a lot
of lertilitlity and organic matter into the soil.
