In the early 1960’s, Ray Schultz started the Mustang Seeds Brand with grass seed, alfalfa and cereal grains. Later in the 1970’s, Ray brought seed corn and soybeans into the Mustang Seeds product line once row crops became more adaptable for the western region. In 1993, Ray’s son, Terry, joined Mustang Seeds and currently serves as the CEO.

Today, Mustang Seeds includes six distribution locations near Casselton, ND; Northville, SD; Beardsley, MN; Madison, SD; Mitchell, SD and Ada, MN. These six locations are available to provide more timely deliveries of seed corn and soybeans to customers and dealers. All facilities offer On Demand treated seed which provides the most accurate seed treating available in the industry.

Throughout the years, Mustang Seeds has continued to keep a commitment to customers, providing them with quality service, up-to-date knowledge and the best suited products for their fields. The sales staff have the tools today to deliver top yields in all genetic platforms. Mustang Seeds’ partnership with GDM Seeds, is a great example of just how important expanding the seed line-up is. This opportunity allows Mustang Seeds to introduce the newest genetics and innovative technology to customers.

In order to provide customers with what they need to achieve success, Mustang Seeds established Red Horse Crop Insurance. Red Horse Crop Insurance offers customers guidance on insuring their crops. The lead insurance agent, Corey Strom, has over 15 years of insurance experience.

Mustang Seeds is proud to have a management team that possesses over 125 years of combined experience in Seed, Chemical and Agronomics to help each grower. As a family owned business for over 5 decades, the Schultz family has kept some of the most dedicated employees in the seed industry. Mustang Seeds will continue to be a reputable provider of agricultural products by using the best personnel that create long lasting relationships with customers. Mustang Seeds is planting the future with an exceptional team, customers and products.

GDM Seeds, Inc. is an independent, family owned, global company based in Argentina. Since 1982, GDM has been cutting edge

technology to research, develop and commercialize maximum yield soybean varieties and other extensive crops. Today, they have

more than 700 employees, operating in more than 15 countries and accounting for 25% of the world’s soy germplasm.

The scientists at GDM Seeds can examine the DNA of seeds until they find those that produce the best plants. The attributes they

look to achieve are: yield per acre, pest and disease resistance, herbicide tolerance, nutritional improvements, tolerance to adverse

environmental conditions and plant characteristics. The scale of their testing program is worldwide which allows them a large

volume of information to guarantee prompt answers and agility in decision making.

GDM’s ambition to improve plant genetics and increase crop production has made them a major player in the United States since

2007. Last year, Mustang Seeds and GDM Seeds started a joint venture in order to better serve customers. Both companies are

family owned and offer a compatible business philosophy that provides opportunities for farmers to increase yields.

Mustang Seeds made their first trip down to Argentina in January to check out GDM’s research laboratories. The trip gave

perspective on the work GDM is doing in regards to gene editing. Gene editing is taking specific DNA out of the plant to enhance

it or make it express an enhanced trait, which leads to a healthier food source. The visit to GDM Seeds provided Mustang Seeds

insight and confidence in their joint venture.

Last year, Mustang Seeds planted their first local research plots with GDM’s genetics. We are excited to have two new products

available from our breeding platform - 05C121 and 19C421. Check them out on page 33.

The mission of Farm Rescue is to help family farms and ranches bridge crises so they have an opportunity to continue viable operations.

Farm Rescue provides planting, haying, harvesting and livestock feeding assistance to farm and ranch families that have experienced a

major injury, illness or natural disaster. Farm Rescue has assisted nearly 700 farm and ranch families since their inception in 2005!

One of the biggest financial drains on a family is an unexpected medical injury or illness and, of course, a natural disaster. It is even

more pronounced on a farm where a family’s livelihood depends on the ability to plant, harvest or provide for their herd.

Farm Rescue gives families a chance to continue their livelihood by providing the necessary equipment and manpower to plant or

harvest a crop, free of charge.

The ability to help families on the land is 100% dependent upon some pretty amazing people - volunteers, sponsors and individual

donors. They give their time, talents and financial resources to help put a crop in the ground or harvest its bounty for families that

are in crisis. Selfless acts. Selfless people. It doesn’t get much better than that in our book!

MUSTANG SEEDS IS A PROUD SPONSOR AND SUPPORTER OF FARM RESCUE

MUSTANG 995 ALFALFA COMMON ALFALFA

TRAVOIS ALFALFA

VERNAL ALFALFA

A special blend of alfalfa for upper Midwest with carefully selected viable pure seeds with high germination. Mustang 995 has the ability to produce a lush stand quickly and produce for many years. Excellent production on good years and also will perform well on marginal ground and with limited rain fall. Seed is pre-inoculated — Apron® treated available.

Common Alfalfa is a winter hardy alfalfa grown and adapted in the state of origin, but is of an unknown variety or varieties. It is usually not noted for high yields but is usually lower in price.

Travois has a low (decumbent) growth, aggressive root proliferation, winter hardiness, predominantly yellow variegated flowers and a large percentage of pickle shaped seed pods. Its winter hardiness is superior to most alfalfa varieties tested throughout our region. Plants of Travois have the ability to produce stem buds on laterally spreading roots. Shoots from the stem buds emerge at the soil surface and develop into young plants at distances that sometimes exceed 36 inches from the mother plant. This characteristic permits a close association between grass and legume, reduces trampling injury, thickens stand and decreases winter loss from soil heaving.

Vernal is a winter hardy alfalfa variety released by Wisconsin. It is wilt resistant and produces fine stemmed, leafy quality hay.

SD-NE ORIGIN

ALLEGIANCE® FL SEED TREATMENT FOR ALFALFA

Allegiance® FL Seed Treatment Fungicide provides systemic protection for the seed, roots and emerging plants against devastating diseases such as Pythium, systemic downy mildew and Phytophthora. It provides protection for early-planted crops and helps produce healthier, more vigorous and uniform stands. Allegiance® is applied at very low rates per acre, making it friendly to the grower, seed and the environment.

• Top yield performance in Idaho trials, out-yielding varieties like: WL 325 HQ, WL 322 HQ, Hybrid-Force 400, PIO 54V54, PIO 5312, Magna V, Renegade and Tango

• Parent stock was specially selected to meet the demands of alfalfa growers in areas where fall dormancy 4 is suitable

• Selected for yield and persistence; its persistence is excellent under both normal and aggressive harvest schedules

• Especially well-suited to areas where nematodes threaten yield production and reduce stand life

• Offers producers broad-spectrum pest resistance and excellent persistence; this high-yielding variety will keep producing quality hay for many years

• New data has shown excellent salt tolerance• Dark green foliage and medium-fine stems make it ideal for hay

BROAD SPECTRUM PEST RESISTANCE• GA306SS offers producers broad-spectrum pest resistance and excellent

persistence• Resists Phytophthora and Verticillium Wilt, which can significantly reduce

production and stand life• Resistance to Fusarium Wilt, Anthracnose and moderate resistance to

all major aphids

“We have been planting Mustang brand seed for 12 years now and continue to be blown away by the yields we get with their competitive prices. The last few years Mother Nature has required us to adapt our

planting strategy and with the wide selection of seed and cover crop they offer, we have been able to make those last minute substitutions

without worrying about yields and planting delays.

Mustang is a family oriented company and you can tell that when you work with any of their employees.

They are always willing to go the extra mile to get you the best product for your field and farming operation.”

MATURIT Y: 100 day

• Very good early vigor and drought tolerance• Good roots and stalks• Tall hybrid with medium ear placement

TIPS AND BENEFITS FOR LEAFY CORN: PLANT:Plant at 28,00-30,000 ppa and never mix with a non-Leafy in the field. Other hybrid types require higherpopulations, have shorter harvest windows and will produce vitreous kernels that require a longer ensiling period. Always plant different hybrid types in separate blocks.

CHOP:Once your Leafy reaches 50% milk line and 65% plant moisture, it is time to chop. If using a kernel processor, ease off. A leafy’s kernels are designed to break and it is essential to retain effective fiber for rumen function. Monitor kernels during chopping and find the balance. Making shredlage is an excellent option as well. Apply the inoculate of your choice.

STORE:Leafies generally contain a higher quantity of sugars in the stalk and leaves at harvest. These sugars improve ensiling speed and quality. Starch fractures easily into small particles during harvest and cow chewing, so new crop silage can be fed as soon as fermentation is complete.

FEED:Leafy silage is versatile and can be balanced in various ration types. Expect your Leafy to have 5-7% more starch digest-ibility than a dual-purpose hybrid. When moving a herd from a conventional or a BMR to a Leafy, reduce concentrate corn and slowly increase as required. Eliminate straw. Watch your herd and adjust the rations as needed.

“I have worked with Mustang Seeds for approximately 19 years and they have been a reliable seed supplier to us. They bring

quality seeds, yields and great people to work with. The recent partnership with GDM is exciting

to me. As a grower myself Mustang products find a good fit in southern North Dakota”

The Agrisure® GT trait provides tolerance to in-crop applications of glyphosate-basedherbicides. This hybrid is an excellent option for refuge acres in a structured refuge operation.

The Agrisure Viptera® 3110 trait stack offers season-long comprehensive above-groundinsect control. It is ideal in areas where corn rootworm management is not a primary concern. Featuring the Agrisure Viptera trait, which is the only trait available today that effectivelycontrols western bean cutworm, the Agrisure Viptera 3110 trait stack controls ear-feedinginsects and protects genetic yield potential.

The Agrisure Artesian® 3011A trait stack brings together an elite hybrid that maximizes yield when it rains and increases yield when it doesn’t with better control of damaging corn insects and herbicide flexibility. The Agrisure Artesian 3011A trait stack provides improved yieldconsistency by converting water to grain more efficiently than other hybrids, control of cornborer and corn rootworm, and tolerance to both glyphosate and glufosinate based herbicides.

The Agrisure® 3122 E-Z Refuge® trait stack offers the convenience of an E-Z Refuge®seed blend featuring two modes of action against corn borer and corn rootworm, as wellas suppression of ear-feeding insects. The Agrisure 3122 E-Z Refuge trait stack is a goodaddition to a multi-year corn rootworm management plan.

Important: Always read and follow label and bag tag instructions; only those labeled astolerant to glufosinate may be sprayed with glufosinate ammonium-based herbicides.

The Agrisure® 3010 trait stack provides season-long control of corn borer, as well asherbicide flexibility with both glyphosate and glufosinate tolerance.

Roundup Ready® Corn 2 contains in-plant tolerance to Roundup® brand herbicides, enabling growers to spray Roundup® brands over the top, from planting through the V8 stage or 30-inch corn height, with excellent crop safety and no yield reduction. Compared to popular conventional corn programs, the Roundup Ready® Corn 2 system costs less, while allowing hybrids to reach their maximum yield potential. While the U.S. regulatory agencies have given full approval to Roundup Ready® Corn 2 for commerce in the U.S. for marketing and consumption as food, food ingredients and feed for livestock, certain regulatory approvals are pending in certain export markets. For more information on these approvals, or for assistance in locating domestic grain outlets, see the American Seed Trade Association web site (www.amseed.org) or contact Monsanto directly at 800-768-6387.

VT Double PRO® RIB Complete® Corn Blend is a mix of 95% traited and 5% refuge seed.With refuge-in-a-bag, there’s no need to calculate or plant separate, structured refuge in the Corn-Growing Area. It contains dual modes of action for maximum protection against cornearworm and other above-ground pests, like European and Southwestern corn borers andfall armyworm.

DroughtGard® Hybrids with VT Double PRO® RIB Complete® Corn Blend contain the first double stacked trait with dual modes of action for above ground insects and maximum pro-tection against corn earworm. Superior genetics along with innovative drought-tolerant trait technology helps DroughtGard® Hybrids withstand drought conditions for a better chance of maximizing kernels per ear and overall yield potential.

SmartStax® RIB Complete® Corn Blend is a mix of 95% Bt. traited, 5% refuge seed. You get all the benefits of SmartStax® technology, plus the convenience of 5% refuge seed interspersed in every bag. It has proven to have a 10 bu/A advantage over non-Bt. traited corn and a 20 bu/A advantage over non-Bt. treated corn + a soil-applied insecticide.

Think Before You Bin Run

Verification Required The last patent on the original Roundup Ready® soybean trait expired a few years ago and U.S. farmers may legally plant saved seed from some varieties of soybean containing the Roundup Ready® soybean trait. However, it is important that you check with your seed supplier to determine if a specific Roundup Ready® soybean variety is covered by other intellectual property rights, and if so, the policy for saving seed of that variety.

Higher Seeding Rate A higher seeding rate may be required for bin-run Roundup Ready® soybeans compared to new branded seed.

Yield Loss Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybean varieties and Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® soybean varieties typically have a higher yield opportunity than Roundup Ready® soybean varieties*.

Cleanout Loss Loss of seed and/or shrink occurs during the seed cleaning and handling processes for bin-run seed.

Seed Treatment Costs Treating your seed will add costs—both the cost of the treatment and the application of that treatment.

Lost Income Every bushel of saved seed you plant is a bushel you’re not selling as commodity grain.

Increased Seed Management If you plan to save and bin-run Roundup Ready® soybeans for planting, you will have to manage your harvest operations and grain storage so that the seed isn’t co-mingled with other seed that’s covered by intellectual property rights.

Monsanto** receives calls and letters each year about potential seed compliance matters. Anyone with a concern or question can anonymously call 1-800-768-6387.

*Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybeans and Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® soybeans are covered by different patents than original Roundup Ready® soybeans and cannot be saved and planted.

KEY POINTS:• Between 50 to 70% of soybean nitrogen (N)

requirements can be obtained from the air due to the action of N-fixing bacteria that form nodules on the roots.

• N-fixing bacteria must be available in the soil or applied to soybean seed for the nodulation process to occur.

NODUL ATION DEVELOPMENT:By applying a soybean inoculant at planting, you are releasing a new strain of Bradyrhizobium japonicum, into the soil for additional N-fixing nodules. Mustang Seeds will provide the best protection available at planting time.

Premium lawn mix is a grass mixture that gives you a healthy, attractive lawn with a combination of sun and shade tolerance. We have just enough fine leaf perennial ryegrass to get your lawn off to a fast start. Kentucky bluegrass and creeping red fescue will continue to fill in and form a dense sod that will give you that quality appearance. This mix is recommended for all applications and will do especially well under intensive lawn practices.

Endurance lawn mix gives you exactly what the name says – a lawn that will endure. We have added enough perennial rye to give you that fast start, tall fescue to keep your lawn green when others have gone dormant and Kentucky bluegrass to help fill in and give you that dense full lawn. Tall fescue blades are slightly wider than perennial rye or Kentucky bluegrass but will blend in nicely if you keep the seeding rate at recommended levels. Tall fescue has a much deeper root system that keeps it green during drought stress, requiring less water and fertility. It will tolerate shade and is widely used for athletic areas. Endurance lawn mix should be planted in spring or very early fall to allow tall fescue to develop root system before winter.

Economy lawn mix for those areas not requiring the higher quality Kentucky bluegrass. Perennial ryegrass establishes quickly with creeping red fescue and Kentucky bluegrass completing the lawn. This mixture does well in sun and shady areas, but will create more thatch than either Premium Lawn or Endurance Lawn mixes.

An excellent mixture of grasses to give you that rapid establishment and high yield production from every acre. This highly palatable mixture will give you early production with orchardgrass and forage perennial ryegrass. The Bromegrass and intermediate wheatgrass assure you full season production. This dual purpose mix may be used for hay or pasture use.

This grass mix is especially suited for horses. Forage perennial ryegrass and orchardgrass give quick establishment and lush early season production. Together with timothy, forage bluegrass and ladino clover, your horse will have high protein and highly productive pasture throughout the entire season.

Our hay and pasture mix is for those producers not wishing to have a legume in their mix. Forage perennial ryegrass, orchardgrass and Bromegrass assure rapid stand establishment and early season production. This is a highly palatable mix for grazing or haying.

This grass mix is a perfect mix for orchards. With crested wheatgrass and creeping red fescue, it will be a low grow mix with fine stems and have the ability to handle dry conditions.

SSESPASTURE GRASSES

SMOOTH BROMEGRASSSmooth Bromegrass is a long-lived perennial sod forming grass that grows 2 to 4 feet tall. Smooth bromegrass spreads by creeping rhizomes and produces in the spring and late summer. Brome is one of the most productive, nutritious, and palatable forage grasses in the central and north central states. Bromegrass is a good soil builder when grown with legumes. It withstands hot, dry weather and has a long growing season. It is highly palatable, and all classes of livestock relish it.

RUSH INTERMEDIATE WHEATGRASSRush, a variety of intermediate wheatgrass developed by USDA NFCS Plant Materials Center (Aberdeen, SD) from northern European germplasm for superior seedling emergence and vigor. Rush has equal to or superior forage production compared with other intermediate wheatgrass releases.

OAHE INTERMEDIATE WHEATGRASSOahe was developed by South Dakota and is a large heavy seed. It is very leafy and yields higher than other intermediate wheatgrass varieties. Oahe Intermediate Wheatgrass is used later than bromegrass and is mainly used for hay and pasture.

CRESTED WHEATGRASSCrested Wheatgrass is fine stemmed and leafy. It is shorter than Standard Crested and is used extensively for turf in the drier areas.

TIMOTHYTimothy is valuable in pasture mixtures but is not suited for permanent pasture except in combination with other grasses and legumes. It is an ideal grass to plant with Alsike. Timothy is adapted to a considerable range of soil reactions but is adversely affected by high acidity to about the same degree as corn. As compared to clover or alfalfa hay, Timothy is relatively low in protein and also in minerals, especially calcium or lime. Timothy is a cool season short lived perennial bunch grass, is tall and late maturing.

ORCHARDGRASSOrchardgrass is a long-lived perennial bunch type grass. Orchardgrass recovers from grazing more rapidly than bromegrass and continues growth during mid-summer. This mid-summer growth helps in preventing bloat when mixed with alfalfas for pasture.

FORAGE PERENNIAL RYEGRASSPerennial ryegrass is a high yielding, high quality grass. Under grazing management, the best varieties are very persistent and nutritious. This grass is also very adaptable to all kinds of environment conditions including poorly drained soils. Perennial ryegrass is compatible in most mixtures with other grass species and clovers used as green chop and in pastures.

ANNUAL RYEGRASSA quick growing, non spreading bunch grass that has excellent forage values. Annual Ryegrass will also aid in holding soil with an extensive root system.

REED CANARYGRASSReed Canarygrass is a tall, course, bigious, long live perennial that grows to a height of from 2 to 8 feet. It spreads by short, scaly underground rhizomes that form a heavy sod in well managed solid seedings. It is adapted for permanent pastures on poorly drained, wet areas. Reed Canarygrass is very tolerant to flooding, even for several weeks duration. It can be used for pasture, hay or silage. Hay quality may be improved by early spring pasturing to delay maturity, thus reducing the coarseness of the growth. Although this grass grows best on moist, cool sights, it makes excellent growth on upland soils. One of the earliest grasses to begin growth in the spring, it produces large yields of nutritious forage. Reed Canary is an excellent waterway grass because of its tolerance to waterlogged situations and should be considered a first choice under these conditions.

FAWN TALL FESCUEFawn Tall Fescue is an early maturing variety adapted to the central and northwest states. It has good seedling vigor, good palatability and great forage production.

ALK AR TALL WHEATGRASSAlkar Tal Wheatgrass is a hardy, drought resistant perennial bunch type grass with coarse foliage. It is quite palatable and easy to establish. It is also quite alkali tolerant and best adapted to low marshy and high-water table areas.

MEADOW BROMEGRASSA cool season, long lived perennial, sod-former with short rhizomes. Adapted to most sites, but performs best on moderately deep, well-drained moist soils. Provides excellent forage and is often used in blends with legumes and other grasses because of its ability to survive but not compete with them.

WESTERN WHEATGRASSWestern wheatgrass is a native, cool season perennial, sod forming grass which reproduces from underground rhizomes and seeds. Western Wheat- grass spreads rapidly and forms a dense sod, making it valuable for erosion control. It produces an abundance of forage early in the season that is nutritious and readily eaten by livestock until late summer when it becomes harsh and fibrous. It makes a good quality hay if cut during the late bloom stand and can stand close grazing. Western Wheatgrass will do well on a wide range of soils, from sands to clays. It is very tolerant to alkali. It can be seeded in pure stands but is usually used in mixtures because it provides ground cover quite slowly.

TEFF GRASSA self-pollinated, warm season annual grass which can be harvested multiple times during the growing season as dry hay, silage or pasture. As a fast-growing crop, Teff combines excellent forage quality with high yield during a relatively short growing season.

GARRISON CREEPING FOXTAILGarrison Creeping Foxtail is a long-lived cool season, sod forming grass. It is adapted to wet soils, sub-irrigated sites or high mountain meadows. It can be used in mixtures on irrigated pastures. It grows fast in hot or cool weather, and forage production is very high, palatable, nutritious and relished by all classes of livestock. Garrison Creeping Foxtail is recommended for use in pasture mixes with other adaptable grasses.

WARM SEASON GRASSESA plant that makes most of its growth during the spring and summer flowering in the summer or autumn.

SWITCHGRASS Switchgrass is a warm season perennial that grows to a height of 2 to 5 feet, although bunch like in appearance. Switchgrass has strong rhizomes that produce a coarse sod, particularly if grazed. It prefers area where moisture is abundant and can stand flooding for short periods and is used in water ways. This grass exhibits rapid growth in late spring and early summer and is readily grazed by cattle, horses and sheep. It is high yielding and produces best if cut early. Newer varieties of this grass are Nebraska 28, Forestburg and Sunburst.

BIG BLUESTEM Big Bluestem is a warm season perennial bunch grass which grows to a height of 3 to 8 feet. It has roots that permeate the top 2 feet of soil. Big Bluestem is adapted to moist, deep, well drained soils. It is very palatable and nutritious. Big Bluestem that is continuously grazed closer than 6 to 8 inches will be replaced by less desirable grasses. Some of the better varieties are Bonilla, Bison, Pawnee and Roundtree.

LITTLE BLUESTEMLittle Bluestem is a warm season, leafy perennial bunch grass which grows to a height of 1 to 4 feet. It can be grazed and has food forage value when the leaves are tender and succulent. It does not cure well and has only moderate palatability for fall or winter grazing.

SIDE OATS GRAMA Side Oats Grama is a warm season, erect native perennial grass which grows in tufts and open bunches to a height of 1 to 2 feet tall. It is more tolerant to drought than Indiangrass or Big Bluegrass. It grows fast in late spring and early summer and stays green late into the summer. Side Oats Grama has good forage value and is grazed mostly in late summer and fall. Improved varieties are Butte, Tailway and Pierre.

BLUE GRAMA Blue Grama is short growing native warm season perennial bunch grass. It is found mostly in the western Dakotas and Nebraska and withstands heavy grazing. It has high drought tolerance on all types of soil. This grass can be grazed in late summer, fall or winter. Blue Grama is used for lawns in drier areas in mixtures with Buffalograss.

COOL SEASON GRASSES A plant that makes most of its growth and flowers during spring and slows growth or becomes dormant during the hot part of the summer, and may resume growth in the fall with the advent of cool temperatures.

ALK AR TALL WHEATGRASSAlkar Tal Wheatgrass is a hardy, drought resistant perennial bunch type grass with coarse foliage. It is quite palatable and easy to establish. It is also quite alkali tolerant and best adapted to low marshy and high water table areas.

INDIANGRASS Indiangrass is a warm season grass that spreads by seed and short rhizomes. It grows to a height of 3 to 6 feet and will grow on sandy soil, however it is better adapted to moist, well drained bottom lands. Indiangrass exhibits moderate salt tolerance and will withstand occasional flooding. It makes good quality hay if cut before flower stalks develop. Improved varieties of Indiangrass are Holt and Tomahawk.

BUFFALOGRASS Buffalograss is a fine leaved, native, sod forming, warm season perennial and is very low growing. It has leaves that are from 4 to 8 inches long. It makes rapid growth in late spring and summer. It recovers rapidly after a drought and can withstand heavy grazing. Buffalograss does a good job of erosion control and is used in lawns for drier areas and for airport runways, picnic areas, etc.

WESTERN WHEATGRASS Western Wheatgrass is a native, cool season perennial, sod forming grass which reproduces from underground rhizomes and seeds. Western Wheatgrass spreads rapidly and forms a dense sod, making it valuable for erosion control. It produces an abundance of forage early in the season that is nutritious and readily eaten by livestock until late summer when it becomes harsh and fibrous. It makes a good quality hay if cut during the late bloom stand and can stand close grazing. Western Wheatgrass will do well on a wide range of soils, from sands to clay. It is very tolerant to alkali. This grass can be seeded in pure stands but is usually used in mixtures because it provides ground cover quite slowly.

GARRISON CREEPING FOXTAILGarrison Creeping Foxtail is a long lived, cool season, sod forming grass. It is adapted to wet soils, sub-irrigated sites or high mountain meadows. It can be used in mixtures on irrigated pastures. This grass grows fast in hot or cool weather, and forage production is very high, palatable, nutritious and relished by all classes of livestock. Garrison Creeping Foxtail is recommended for use in pasture mixes with other adaptable grasses.

GREEN NEEDLE GRASSGreen Needle Grass is a cool season, perennial bunch type grass that grows from 1-1/2 to 3 feet tall. It is a native grass that grows on medium to fine textured soil. Green Needle Grass starts growth early in the spring, is nutritious and palatable and remains green through the summer, except in very dry years. It has good regrowth in the fall and is grazed throughout the year. Stand establishment may be slow because of slow germination, caused in part to a high dormant seed content.

CANADA WILD RYEGRASSCanada wildrye is a short-lived, cool-season grass found on sandy shores and dunes; wooded areas, especially along trails, rivers and streams; and other disturbed sites throughout much of the North America. Seedlings are vigorous and establish quickly, but are not highly competitive with other grasses. Growth begins later in the spring and lasts longer into the summer than growth of smooth brome. It is moderately drought tolerant and winter hardy. It has good tolerance to salinity and tolerates shade very well.

COVER CROPS + GRAZING MIXES

BRACO WHITE MUSTARDBraco white mustard is a useful crop with annual rotations, it has been shown to suppress nematodes and other soil borne organisms and some weed seeds.

WINTER PEASWinter peas are a leafy variety that produce excellent forage yields and standabillity. They provide excellent forage quality when chopped in combination with a small grain.

SUBZERO BRASSICABrassica is a cross between kale and turnip. Improved forage quality and fast regrowth give forage brassica an advantage over common rapeseed.

LADINO CLOVERLadino Clover is a giant white clover. The plants grow up to 14 inches high. Ladmo recovers quickly from grazing or clipping, as new leaf and flower buds are continually developing on the running stems. Ladino has done best on medium to heavy soils with abundant moisture. It ranks high in feed value, is highly palatable and is a valuable soil improvement crop.

MUSTANG FORAGE RYEExcellent for fall and spring grazing. High tonnage and excellent forage quality on late spring harvest. Promotes excellent soil conditions to follow with soybeans, corn or another forage crop.

MUSTANG COVER CROP RYEDwarf Variety: excellent choice for cover crop use where the extra height and forage yield is not needed. The average height is the same as most winter wheats. Also is an excellent choice for grain production. Has above average yield and threshes easier than most other varieties.

TRITICALEThere are fall and spring varieties. A cross between wheat and rye and is excellent for Fall/Spring Grazing or for a forage crop.

TEFF GRASS A self-pollinated, warm season annual grass which can be harvested multiple times during the growing season as dry hay, silage or pasture. As a fast-growing crop, Teff combines excellent forage quality with high yield during a relatively short growing season.

COMMON VETCH A nitrogen fixing leguminous plant. This hardy plant is often grown as green manure. It is tolerant of light mowing and will regrow in pastures after moderate grazing.

FORAGE BARLEY Forage Barley is a two-rowed hay barley that is well adapted for a wide variety of growing conditions and climates that produces a high yielding, high quality and uniform hay crop. Forage Barley has a fine stem with aids in feeding and digestibility.

GERMAN MILLET An annual grass with slim, vertical, leafy stems. It is a warm season crop that is planted in late spring. Harvest for hay or silage. Does not regrow.

ALSIKE CLOVER Popular in regions where red clover is the main rotation crop and areas where red clover will not thrive. It is used on low, wetland and soils that are low in lime content or have become run down. Alsike is suitable for either hay or pasture. It is especially valuable when used with Timothy and is usually used only in mixtures.

MEDIUM RED CLOVER A good nitrogen producer. Good root system-soil builder. Is a tall clover. Excellent for forage.

CRIMSON CLOVER With its rapid, robust growth, crimson clover provides early spring nitrogen for full-season crops. Rapid fall growth or summer growth in cool areas, also makes it a top choice for short-rotation niches as a weed suppressing green manure. Popular as a staple for age and roadside cover crop throughout the southeast, crimson clover is gaining increased recognition as a versatile summer-annual cover in colder regions.

BERSEEM CLOVER An annual pasture legume. Grows best on fertile, medium to heavy textured soils of mild acidity. It is a heavy nitrogen producer.

MAMMOTH RED CLOVER A short-lived perennial that produces only one cutting per season and is taller and much coarser than medium red clover. Lodging and leaf loss may be a problem if it is allowed to go to full bloom before cutting. Mammoth red clover requires less moisture than medium red but will perform better in poorer soils.

YELLOW BLOSSOM Sweet CloverPrimarily used as a cover crop as it has deep roots that help break up compaction and build organic matter. Not a good forage crop.

COYOTE RADISHA late maturing cover crop radish that produces a significant root mass. This deep root system allows it to pull nitrogen and other nutrients from deep within the soil and bring them back.

MIXES

DWARF ESSEX RAPE SEED A very popular, lower growing rape seed that is very nutritious to all classes of livestock. Dwarf Essex belongs to the cabbage family and has high protein and high energy levels. It is cold, heat, and drought tolerant and is a feed source during summer months when it is hot and dry.

PURPLE TOP TURNIPS Most commonly used turnip in the U.S. Works well for late fall and winter grazing. Good choice for low fertility soils.

HAIRY VETCHA winter hardy annual. It should be planted in late September or early October. The stems are weak and viny. When planted with oats and cut green it makes an excellent livestock feed. Hairy Vetch is used mainly as a green manure crop in the cotton belt.

LENTILS A member of the legume family. Lentils can supply a significant part of its nitrogen requirement by fixing nitrogen from the air. It is a cool season crop with a relatively shallow root. It is moderately resistant to high temps and drought. Lentils have an indeterminate growth habit. This cover crop will not tolerate waterlogged soils, flooding or high salts.

FLA XIs a brown-seeded, blue flowered variety. The variety is early in maturity and fairly tall.

ANNUAL RYEGRASS A very popular cover crop in parts of the Midwest. It is fast establishing, provides excellent weed suppression, can be grazed and helps to reduce nematode populations. Deep roots improve compaction, quick establishment and heavy top-growth to prevent soil erosion or runoff. Loves nitrogen, can uptake extensive amounts of phosphates.

FESTULOLIUM A hybrid cross between Meadow Fescue and Ryegrass. Festulolium is mainly utilized in pastures for grazing and stockpiling, either in mixes or pure stands. Benefits include higher forage yields than perennial ryegrass, increased mid-summer growth, high disease resistance and winter hardiness.

4010 FORAGE PEASIs a cool season legume developed for the production of high-quality forage for livestock.

SUDANGRASS Fast growing with fine stems, aggressive tillering and a mass of leaves at harvest. Adapted to all areas. Can be used as pasture or for hay. Could have risk for prussic acid. Do not graze until 18” tall.

SORGHUM SUDANGRASS An intermediate plant size. It would be slightly taller than straight sudangrass. Yield is generally less than that for forage sorghums, but similar or slightly higher than sudangrass. It can be used for hay, green-chop, or pasture. Larger stems make drying for hay more difficult than for sudangrasses.

FORAGE SORGHUM Major use is for silage. Usually can grow between 8-13 feet tall. Stems and leaves are similar in size to corn. Feeding value of sorghum silage is 80-90% of comparable corn silage.

GRAIN SORGHUMAlso called Milo, used for grain production. This type grows 3-5 feet tall depending on variety and growing conditions. It is usually not considered for forage production because of low dry matter yields.

MUSTANG S-8200BMR

MUSTANG S-8500 GERMAN MILLET

MUSTANG GRAZE

CANE FORAGE

SORGHUM-SUDANGRASS HYBRID WITH BROWN MIDRIB

HYBRID PEARL MILLET

A BMR forage that is the result of breeding a Red Top Cane and adding the BMR trait. This added trait will enhance the tonnage of conventional Cane and other hybrids at the same time getting increased palatability, utilization, milk production and weaning weights. Grows 8-9 feet tall. Recommended usage: grazing, ensilage and hay.

S-8200 may be used for direct grazing, hay or haylage. This hybrid is completely “Brown Midrib.” It has significantly increased digestibility of its stems and leaves. This 6-8 foot tall sorghum offers the grower excellent quality and energy for his animals.

S-8500 offers excellent grazing and hay potential. Fast re-growth after clipping. Clipping should be done in the pre-boot stage. Under good conditions hybrid is 5-6 feet tall in the pre-boot. Grazing should begin at approx. 25” tall.

A warm season annual grass that can produce valuable forage for livestock as well as grain for wildlife use. German Millet can produce a hay cutting in as little as 40 to 50 days making it a good alternative for a quick “in and out” hay crop. Plant when soil temperatures are 65 or above for quick germination and establishment. Planting dates: Late May through July. Planting Rates: 15- 20 lbs. per acre.

Mustang Graze is an annual forage plant for silage, grazing, cover crop or green chopping. It has excellent early growth and grows very tall. The tonnage is extremely high and is very palatable. It can be planted either in rows, drilled or broadcast. Seeding should be at 10 to 12 pounds per acre in rows or 20 to 30 pounds per acre broadcast. It is very sweet juicy and leafy. The heavier the planting, the finer the stems will be. For pasture uses, a rotating system is suggested. Ideal grazing height is 24 to 36 inches. Normal grazing precautions should be observed. Before green chopping, the plants should reach a height of 24 to 36 inches. Usually Mustang Graze will yield 3 to 6 cuttings depending on planting time, moisture and temperatures. For hay, the plants should reach boot stage and ideally be followed by a conditioner after cutting. Recommended usage: silage crops where it is not practical to use corn, such as when circumstances require a fast-growing crop for late or delayed re-planting. Planting should be delayed until the soil is warm enough to germinate seed (60 to 70 degrees).

WHEN SHOULD SORGHUMS & GRASSES BE HARVESTED?SILAGEForage Sorghums should be harvested at the mid-dough stage for ensiling. At this point, quality is still good and most types have dried down enough for ensiling.

HAYHighest yields are obtained when sudangrass and sorghum- sudangrass hybrids are harvested at the soft-dough stage. However, curing is difficult and quality is low when harvested this late. The general recommendation is to harvest either type for hay whenever forage is about 30 inches tall. Sorghum- sudangrass hybrids are generally more difficult to make hay because of the larger stems. Crop should be cut 6 inches above the ground to encourage re-growth and two cuttings may be expected.

GREEN CHOP Sudangrass and sorghum-sudangrass hybrids can be used to provide green chopped forage over summer. Begin chopping after the plant is 18 inches tall or cut at least 10 days after a killing frost to avoid prussic acid concerns. First cutting should be taken prior to heading.

PASTURESudangrass and sorghum sudangrass hybrids can be grazed any time after the plant has reached a height of 18 inches, which is usually 5 to 6 weeks after planting. For best results, it should be grazed rotationally with a sufficiently heavy stocking rate to remove forage down to a 6 to 8 inch height in a few days. The pasture will grow rapidly when the cattle are removed for more total tonnage.

CALCULATIONS

TAKING STAND COUNTS IN SOLID-SEEDED SOYBEANS

WEIGHTS & MEASURES

Use your calculator and these formulas to quickly figure exact acreage, yields and storage capacity.ACREAGE

Corn, Soybeans & Sorghum (row length, ft.) x (row width, in.) x (no. or rows) ÷ 522,720 = acresWheat (row length, ft.) x (width of harvest strip, ft.) ÷ 43,560 = acres

YIELDCorn-Grain (100 – harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (110.465) ÷ (row length, ft.) ÷ (row width, in.) ÷ (no. rows harvested) = bu./A. of corn at 15.5% moistureCorn-Silage (100 – actual %p silage moisture) x ( green wt. silage, lbs./A.) ÷ (30) = lbs./A. of silage adjusted to 70% moistureSoybeans (100 – harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (100.138) ÷ (row length, ft.) ÷ (row width, in.) ÷ (no. rows harvested) = bu./A. of soybeans at 13% moistureSorghum (100 – harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (6078.14) ÷ (row length, ft.) ÷ (row width, in.) ÷ (no. rows harvested) = lbs./A. of sorghum at 14% moisture

STORAGE CAPACITYCorn, Soybeans & SorghumRound bin: (bin diameter, ft.) x (bin diameter, ft.) x (depth, ft.) x (.6283) = bu. storedRectangular storage: (width, ft.) x (length, ft.) x (depth, ft.) x (.8) = bu. stored

WEIGHT1 metric ton = 2305 pounds1 short ton = 2300 pounds1 pound = 16 ounces1 gram = .035 ounce1 kilogram = 2.2046 pounds

LINEAR MEASURE (LENGTH)1 mile = 5280 feet or 320 rods1 rod = 16.5 feet, 1.5 yards1 inch = 2.54 centimeters1 meter = 39.37 inches1 kilometer = 0.62 miles

SQUARE MEASURE (AREA)1 acre = 160 sq/ rods or 43,560 square feet1 hectare = 2.47 acres1 sq. rod = 30.25 square yards1 sq. yard = 9 sq. feet1 sq. foot = 144 sq. inches

CUBIC MEASURES (VOLUME)1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches1 acre inch = 3630 cubic feet or 27,154 gallons1 cubic pint = 7.48 gallons or 62.4 pounds of water1 gallon = 8.345 pounds of water27 cubic ft = 1 cubic yard

DRY MEASURE1 bushel = 4 pecks1 peck = 8 quarts1 quart = 2 pints

LIQUID MEASURE1 gallon = 4 quarts1 quart = 2 pints1 pint = 16 fluid ounces or 2 cups1 liter = 1.06 quarts

Roll a hula hoop, let it fall, and count the number of plants inside the hoop. Repeat at least eight times at random locations in the field. Multiply the average of all counts taken by the factor below to determine the approximate population per acre.
