Researchers and producers discussed using annual forages within perennial pasture systems to fill recurring feed gaps, extend grazing, and reduce feeding costs. They noted that forage acreage in Western Canada has declined faster than cattle numbers, leaving fewer forage acres per cow, and presented annual forages as a way to improve system efficiency rather than replace perennial pastures.
Integrating annual forages may increase on-farm feed availability and reduce reliance on purchased hay or other feeds, potentially easing feed costs for cattle producers. The story describes a management option, not a confirmed change in forage supply or prices.
