Forage Quality Classes of High, Medium, Fair <br />and Low. Numeric values of 5, 4, 3 and 2, respectively, were assigned to these Forage <br />Quality Classes. Where neither the USDA nor Welch listed a forage class, a value of 1 <br />was assigned. <br />*"The Forage Quality Index Value is calculated by adding the forage quality values for <br />all species <br />Page 26 <br />
