Text Box: A mixture of Tiff leaf millet and cow peas was planted on 13-inch rows in very dry, hard, root-bound Bahia grass sod in early June 2000—the driest year on record in Louisiana. Above pictures were taken in mid and late July. The farmer experienced rapid growth in spite of low moisture conditions. Bahia grass flourished after millet and peas were grazed off.

Excerpt from a Louisiana farmer’s letter of August 25, 2000:

“Your millet/peas demo crop was quite a conversation piece among producers/neighbors. It grew rapidly in spite of low moisture conditions.

“When it reached 42-46 inches, I was urged by several experienced cattlemen to try ‘creeping’ by raising lower electric polywire to a height that would allow smaller (late) calves to graze while excluding larger calves and cows. This worked for several days. I woke up early one morning to literally hear ‘biting’ and ‘chomping’. The whole herd had violated the 3500 volt temp electric fence and mowed the patch down in a matter of hours. I wished I had 50 acres.”
