The cows will chew stalks down, get any leftover green weeds without a chopper"s help-- sort of depends on how many cows to the acre you put out there. Holsteins will do a good job gleaning and cleaning, was old practice and with cost of fuel saves a bit. Mother used to turn out her small herd in nearest corn field after picking, no chopping and when I disked that field in spring before bean planting scheduled, no problems with trash, no erosion problem from winter- this in central Iowa. Stalk chopping was done on far fields that didn"t have fences, then plowed/disked spring. RN
