Grazing Calves on Wheat Pasture
Calves can begin grazing wheat pastures in the late fall, when the wheat plants are 3-4 inches high. Grazing should be light at first to avoid damaging the young plants. Calves should be allowed to graze for short periods of time and then moved to a different pasture. As the wheat plants grow, calves can be allowed to graze for longer periods. By the end of the growing season, calves can be grazing wheat pastures full-time.
