Title: Hay and Haylage
Summary: Many species of grasses and legumes are used for forage production, but only a limited number are
suitable for forage production in New Hampshire. These species have the potential to produce high
yields of dry matter, are winterhardy in our climate, and are adapted to New Hampshire’s growing
season.
None of the species listed are any better than the others. Rather, species differ in their ability to
perform under certain conditions and management practices. When choosing a forage species for new
seedings, consider the conditions of your property and your intended use for the forage stand.
