Weather is anything but predictable. For alfalfa growers, that unpredictability can force tough decisions about when to cut. A delay of just seven days might not sound like much, but when you are chasing dairy-quality forage, it can dramatically change the outcome of your harvest. In this FastChat, we are joined by a longtime researcher and product manager, Dave Witte from Forage Genetics International, to break down exactly what happens, both agronomically and nutritionally, when a harvest gets pushed back due to weather. We will compare how conventional alfalfa and HarvXtra® Alfalfa respond differently and walk through a real-world example of how this plays out on the farm.

Every operation has different goals and priorities. There’s no silver bullet that works for everyone. But with the HarvXtra trait, you have options. It’s the first trait of its kind to provide the flexibility to produce higher-quality forage or extend harvest to maximize yield potential, which opens up new ways to optimize the way you grow alfalfa.
