Comment:
Mowed (harvested) switchgrass in T6, reps: 6, 5, 4 and 3. Micro-plots in the Northwest corner of each rep were already harvested in fall of 2023. Equipment used: JD 4995 Discbine. These four reps were harvested and bailed same day.
T6 plots were not harvest in fall of 2023 due to prolonged wet weather.
Locations where the bales dropped from the baler were marked with JD GPS on the LTER Gator.
T6R1 and T6R2 were harvested on 4/15/24, due to weather.
