Junk. I would never plant it. I cut/bale enough of it through custom work to get 'aquainted' with it. Only seems to last 3 years.One costomer sprays twice a year. He has huge bare spots in the field.True,no weeds,but no grass or alfalfa.3 years old and I plowed it out,would have been the 4th year.Started dying in the second year'. I've even had to plow out 1 year old stuff because it died out.It 'handles' different,too,although I really cant explain.......Fine stemmed,fine/tiny leaves too.Seems to be juicier during cutting.I seen animals turn up their nose at it.I've seen guys plant grass into sparce stands. Then you get something you cant spray.Roundup kills the grass.2,4D/banvel etc kills the alfalfa.Have a customer who is goint to plant 'no till' corn into some 3 year(should have been plowed out LAST year) old stuff. We will see how that works out.Not to mention it's over 8 bucks a pound.
