Every livestock farmer needs this; after trying to grow alfalfa for a long time and not succeeding, I finally cracked it. Feeding is one of the biggest challenges of livestock farming in Africa, to compliment the brachiara grass, I decided to also plant alfalfa.

Fred, I have grown in for years in my cattle ranch. They help in early dry season but one big warning ⚠️. It causes severe bloating in animals if they eat it exclusively for a while. You must mix them with other grasses or feeds. Just like beans that make us pass gas a lot. Alfalfa has a lot of protein that gives gas in animals like beans does us but because they have 4 chambered stomach, the gas gets trapped and causes bloating. In worst cases it can kill your animal. I will advice you plant it with seasonal rye grass so the rye will outgrow the Alfalfa but not kill it and will also die off first as the dry season approaches leaving the Alfalfa to sustain the animals another month or two. I broadcasted it at planting. It's better that way. They are like peanuts 🥜 (ground nuts) and don't do well bunched up as they grow. My cows love it but I mix their diet. Thanks and good.

Since you have the machinery to create these bales, have you considered the idea of creating more to sell out to other farms as well, should you get such an enquiry please? That can be another form of income and this can be delivered straight from your farm, so you could sell with delivery with a minimum order quantity of 50 or more and not less, plus delivery charges, what do you think sir?
