Lorenz's OK Seeds For All Your Forage Needs
Pasture establishment or renovation is only as good as the seeds that are planted. At Lorenz’s OK Seeds we encouraged you to consider your seed selection carefully because this will help you save time and money (and who doesn’t need to save this) during production.
Moreover, the quality of the seed you plant for grazing and the hay you cut directly impacts on the health and well being of your animals. In other words, by investing in high quality seed you will increase the health of your animals and produce a better product for you to market.
Lorenz’s OK Seeds carry a range of forage and hay seed varieties suitable for beef and dairy cattle, and other livestock including:
- Common Alfalfa -Hay and Grazing

It has hollow, slender and succulent stems, 2 to 4 feet long. The foliage is pale green, and the flowers are colored, usually purple, pink or reddish. The leaf consists of one to three pairs of leaflets and terminal branched tendrils. Pods are 1.5 to 2.5 inches long with three to five round, dark-colored seeds. Seed color is commonly gray with purple or brown mottles. Seed size is fairly large with test weights of 55 to 60 pounds per bushel.
