Winter Grazing Beef Cattle in Western CanadaHistorically, many producers in Western Canada have

wintered their beef herd using a traditional drylot feeding

system. In this type of system cows are fed stored forages,

such as hay, in a corral or drylot. The winter feeding period

for beef cattle in Western Canada is typically 200 d per year;

therefore a large cost is associated with supplying feed

nutrients to pregnant beef cows. Research has shown that

harvested forage, such as hay, costs between $.02 and $.07

per pound of dry matter, which is double the cost for the

same amount of nutrients from pasture. In addition, the cost

of feeding bales can be 3% of the cost of harvesting the hay.

This then leads to a substantial increase in cost of production

per kilogram of beef for the producer. The producer will

also have extra expenses related to corral cleaning, manure

handling and facilities maintenance. Studies have shown that

fall & winter grazing annuals can result in improved cow body

condition, postpone the onset of weight loss, and decrease

costs. In addition, wintering systems can have a positive

effect on nutrient cycling and soil health of the grazed land.

There are many different winter grazing systems available to

producers, including grazing standing whole plant corn.

When looking at winter grazing beef cows with standing

corn, there are a few key points to ensure success, while

maintaining cow health and increasing your bottom line.

Hybrid choice

• Choose a hybrid that is roughly 150 – 200 days longer than

your corn heat unit area. The goal is to have corn freeze

and thus be grazed at the R5 (dent) – R5.5 (1/2 milk line)

stage. Choosing a later hybrid will help ensure the crop

does not mature too much and will not produce blacklayer

corn. This will reduce issues associated with acidosis, due

to high starch accumulation in more mature corn. This will

also ensure higher palatability of the whole plant, leading to

more effective grazing and reduced residue on the field. Talk

to your Pioneer Hi-Bred sales representative to determine

which hybrid is right for your operation.

Cow history

• Remember that naïve cows will need time to adapt to a

winter grazing system. Since this is a high quality feed,

take the time to slowly adapt these cows to the grazing

system by allowing them entry to the field with full rumens,

supplying additional feed (ie., hay, green feed) and only

allowing a small grazing paddock (2-3 hours of grazing).

• Know and manage the cow age by limiting winter grazing to

your main cow herd. Older or younger cows may not be able

to graze as effectively as the main cow herd.

Grazing management & monitoring

• To eliminate the risk of acidosis and founder, make sure to

manage and monitor the grazing cows closely.

• Limit graze the animals on a 2-3 day rotation. This will

ensure they have access to new feed every 2-3 days for

proper nutrition, but will also ensure they clean up the stalk/

stover of the crop to limit residue.

• Ensure good, clean, adequate water supply.

• Ensure a proper mineral package is provided (2:1 Ca/P ratio,

trace mineral and salt).

Input costs for grazing corn can differ depending on commodity

prices, however they may range from $195 - $220 per acre.

Although this is significantly higher than input costs for other

types of grazing. Research has shown that winter grazing corn

can decrease overall feeding costs. Cost for grazing cows,

including yardage may range from $.70 – 1.40 per day, which is

substantially lower than feeding stored forages.

When harvest is delayed, a number of potential losses may occur,

including increased tendency to shatter. Soybeans at harvest

stage lose and re-absorb moisture readily, and after several

such cycles of wetting and drying, are predisposed to shatter. In

addition, delayed harvest often results in losses from increased

lodging and reduced grain quality.

Research on Field Losses Due To Harvest Delays

A study conducted at the University of Wisconsin investigated the

effects of delayed harvest on soybean field losses Two varieties from

each of three maturity groups were grown in each of three years at

Arlington, Wisconsin. Initial harvest for each maturity group began 3

to 7 days beyond the R8 stage (full maturity). Other plots were left in

the field for periods of 2, 4 and 6 weeks beyond the first harvest date.

Yield losses as a percent of total yield are shown below:

Table 1. Effect of harvest delay on soybean field losses.

Harvest Delay Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4% yield lost

None 4.1 6.7 7.5 6.12 Weeks 5.0 9.9 9.2 8.14 Weeks 6.3 16.1 12.1 11.56 Weeks 6.8 18.1 19.9 13.9Average 5.6 12.7 11.4 9.9

Source: University of Wisconsin.

Yield loss was greatly affected by year. In year 1, field losses after

2 to 6 weeks of harvest delay were only slightly higher than normal

field losses with no delay. But losses due to harvest delay in both

years 2 and 3 were over twice that of year 1. Losses increased with

weeks of delay in all years tested.

Preharvest, shatter and stem losses increased with harvest delays,

but stubble and threshing losses remained constant across delays.

Gathering unit losses accounted for 60% of total losses.

Monitoring Harvest Losses

Four soybeans in a one-foot square area are equal to a one-

bushel loss per acre. Harvest losses should be checked in front of

the combine, behind the header, and in back of the combine to

pinpoint causes of loss. Ag engineers suggest checking losses in a

rectangular area across the entire width of the harvest swath. A ten

square foot rectangle is suggested as a standard size. 40 soybeans

in a 10 square foot area translates into a one bushel per acre loss.

A 10-square foot frame can be built out of rope, with small metal

stakes (heavy wire or nails) at the corners to insert into the ground.

Minimizing soybean harvest losses can mean substantially higher

yields and profits. Extension ag engineers suggest that good

harvest practices can reduce losses to near 3%, or only one

to two bu/acre. However, delayed harvest or poorly adjusted

equipment can result in losses of 10% or more. Since soybeans

dry very quickly, close monitoring of grain moisture is required for

timely harvest. In addition, combines must be properly adjusted,

frequently checked and carefully operated to minimize losses.

Timely Harvest of Soybeans Important

Soybeans should be harvested the first time they reach 13-14%

moisture. Moistures above 13% incur a price discount, but

moistures below 13% result in less weight at the elevator. The

loss of saleable weight can be more substantial than typical price

discounts for wetter grain, so growers should avoid delivering

overdry soybeans. In addition to lost income, harvest losses are also

increased when soybeans are harvested too dry.

Soybeans dry very quickly after reaching maturity. At physiological

maturity (R7), grain moisture is over 50%, but a harvestable

moisture of near 13% can be reached in as little as two weeks

under good drying conditions. In order to time harvest perfectly,

it is necessary to monitor soybean drying very closely. At full

maturity (R8), 95% of pods have reached their mature pod color.

From this point, only 5 to 10 good drying days are needed before

harvest. Begin checking grain moisture before all the leaves

have dropped off all the plants, since various stresses can cause

soybeans to retain some leaves. It is not uncommon to see a few

green leaves and stems on some plants after the pods are fully

ripe and the soybeans are dry enough for harvest.

the cut-height. Other losses occur due to improper threshing and

separation at the cylinder and screens. Harvesting losses can be

minimized with proper maintenance and adjustment:

• Be sure knife sections and ledger plates are sharp, and

that wear plates, hold-down clips, and guards are properly

adjusted. Chains and bearings should be properly lubricated,

and belts tight.

• Proper reel speed in relation to ground speed will reduce

gathering losses. Shatter increases if the reel turns too fast;

stalks may be dropped if the reel turns too slow. Use a reel

speed about 25% faster than ground speed.

• The reel axle should be 6 to 12 inches ahead of the sickle in most

cases. Operate a bat reel just low enough to tip cut stalks onto

the platform. The tips of the fingers on a pickup reel should clear

the cutterbar by about two inches.

• Cut soybeans as low as possible to minimize stubble losses.

Excessive stubble heights can result in significant losses, as

shown in the following table:

Height of Cut % Loss0 inches (hand-harvested) 0%

3.5 inches 5.4%5.0 inches 9.4%6.5 inches 12.2%

• Adjust the rotor- or cylinder-concave clearance according to

your operator’s manual. Then adjust rotor or cylinder speed for

threshing conditions. Generally, operate the rotor or cylinder

at the lowest speeds that effectively thresh the soybeans.

When beans are tough, rotor or cylinder speed may have to be

increased. Decrease rotor or cylinder speed as beans dry to

reduce breakage.

• Keep forward speed at about three miles per hour for most

combines. Slow down for uneven soil surface or other abnormal

conditions.

• Stubble losses can also be reduced by planting and cultivating

practices. Height of lowest pods is increased by growing soybeans

in narrow rows or by higher plant populations within the row.

The length of the frame should be the width of the combine header.

The width of the frame needed to equal 10 square feet of area is

shown below:

Width of Combine Header (Length of Rope Frame) Width of Rope Frame

A convenient means of measuring losses is to stop the combine

and back up about 20 feet. Losses are determined in three areas:

in the standing soybeans, behind the combine, and 5 to 10 feet

behind the standing soybeans. Set the frame across the entire

swath width in the standing soybeans. Soybeans, pods, or broken

stems on the ground here represent preharvest losses. Count the

number of soybeans shelled and in pods on the ground within the

frame. 40 soybeans is equal to one bushel loss per acre.

Now move the frame to an area behind the combine and count

again. Be sure to sort through all crop residue to reveal shelled

soybeans and unthreshed pods beneath. Also count soybeans in

pods on stubble. These soybeans behind the combine represent

total losses. The difference between total losses and preharvest

losses represents harvesting losses.

Harvesting losses can be further divided into “gathering” or

“cutter-bar” losses and machine losses, by checking just behind

the standing beans. To make this measurement, set the frame

across the entire swath width about 5 to 10 feet behind the

standing soybeans. Count and record the number of individual

soybeans within the frame that are shelled and in pods, including

stubble. This count minus the preharvest count equals the

gathering loss. Machine loss is calculated as follows:

Total loss - preharvest loss - gathering loss = machine loss

Reduce Harvesting Loss with Proper Adjustment and Operation

Though the type of equipment used can impact harvest loss, all

equipment must be properly adjusted and carefully operated to

minimize losses. Soybeans that never get inside the combine can

account for 80 to 85% of harvest losses. These losses occur due

to shatter or lost stalks at the header or left on stubble below
