Everything you want to know....

Amaranth forages showed 11.95–14.19% crude protein (CP), 45.53–70.88% neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and 34.17–49.83% acid detergent fiber (ADF) contents.Dec 24, 2020

Every bovine I've ever seen would graze Amaranth species plants like they were about to starve. Mow that stuff, let it dry some moisture out of it and chop it for haylage at about 60% moisture.

Am I correct in assuming you are kneeling in first picture?


Haha! Yes. I had a great uncle that did that for decades. Now I'm the silly old man.....
