He also gives important management advice that could prevent your animals from being sickened by the toxic compounds found in sorghum sudangrass and some tall fescue. He also answers the question we all want to know: āWhat is the best kind of pasture for goats so you can stop worrying about them dying?ā This the second half of Dr. Laneās awesome interview which lasted more than an hour.
