Forage Production

Lesley Kelly is wife, mother, creator of High Heels and Canola Fields, blogger, speaker, podcast host and co-founder of the Do More Agriculture Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that is championing mental health in agriculture. She shares part of her story here:

Cuts, scrapes and slivers are unavoidable for all who work in agriculture. Most of us were taught to “rub some dirt on it” and get back to work. That method can be helpful for small nicks, but we cannot expect it to work on every injury.

Conscientious service and strong relationships are the hallmark of HD Custom Forage Harvesting LLC.

Situation No. 1

You are reminiscing about the early cars with a catalytic converter and how if you were behind one on the road when the driver floored it, you would be the recipient of a rotten egg smell as they sped away.

When I visit with forage producers about hay moisture in square bales, the top concern is spontaneous combustion and fire risk, followed by mold and mycotoxins and heat damage.
