National Forage Week (June 20 – 26) is coming to a close. The leadership team of the Indiana Forage Council, a not-for- profit organization, decided it was appropriate to share on the council’s Facebook page the contributions forage crops provide the world. If you didn’t see the daily posts, they follow.
In appreciation to those that produce and utilize forages on their farms, provide forage-related inputs, and educate people about forages.
Podcasts related to forages were developed in conjunction with the expertise of “Hoosier Ag Today” and the links follow.

Celebrate every day with an appreciation for all that forages do for the world. Have some ice cream. It’s a great indirect way to eat alfalfa and corn silage!
