Hay and forage producers now have access to several new resources for learning more about forage plants. Two new 24 x 30" posters, "Forage Legumes" and "Forage Grasses," are available from the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI). Each poster features color photographs of 30 species of important forage plants. Descriptive text provides details about seeding, establishment, fertility needs, pest considerations and other tips. Many of the species on the posters are grown across large areas of North America. The posters were prepared by the authors of the book, Southern Forages: Don Ball, Auburn University; Carl Hoveland, University of Georgia; and Garry Lacefield, University of Kentucky.
The Fourth Edition of Southern Forages is available from IPNI as well. Contact IPNI for cost details at: Circulation Department, IPNI, 655 Engineering Drive, Suite 110, Norcross, GA 30092-2837.
