Renner <br />June 26, 1987 <br />Page 4 <br />till later in the season, the best turn-in period <br />will be after the alfalfa has matured and becomes <br />senescent. Sheep will be less prone to bloat if <br />allowed to graze late in the season. <br />b. Livestock must be closely watched, especially the <br />first 2-3 days after turn-in. Frequent checking must <br />continue and chronic bloaters should be removed, <br />c. Animals should be turned-in during the heat of the <br />day, not early in the morning when the dew is <br />heaviest. Similarly, care should be taken when <br />turning-in during wet weather. <br />d. Do not turn hungry livestock into a new field. Fill <br />the animals up with dry roughage while providing <br />adequate water and salt. <br />e. Dry roughage available in the pasture will aid in <br />bloat prevention. Dry roughage will be available to <br />some extent as standing dead litter from previous <br />year's growth. If conditions allow, same strips of <br />vegetation in heavy alfalfa stands may be cut and <br />allowed to cure prior to turning-in livestock. Rough <br />conditions, rock and brush or tree stems may limit <br />the use of this practice. Because this would be a <br />non-selective treatment, only areas with no shrubs <br />would be considered. <br />f. Adequate salt and water should be available at all <br />times. <br />g. Use bloat block or similar supplement to reduce <br />bloat. The active anti-bloat ingredient in the <br />supplement or blocks is Poloxalene and is usually <br />included in salt-molasses blocks fed free-choice. <br />The amount of bloat block required is dependent on a <br />number of variables such as weather conditions, <br />condition of animals forage composition in the <br />pasture, grazing response of animals, and total <br />number of animals stocked. It will be the <br />responsibility of the livestock operator to provide <br />adequate bloat guard supplement for the livestock. <br />h. It is generally recommended that the legume component <br />should not be greater than 40-50 percent of the <br />production in a pasture in order to reduce the <br />potential for bloat. The 1985 revegetation study <br />data for the Seneca Mine shows that with the <br />
