There is natural fungus that grows on/in normal fescue. It is call endophite, I know I missed spelled it but that is how you say it. It is most prevelent in the seed head and around the roots. It causes cattle to loose tail hair, have sore feet and retain placenta at birth. It causes abortion in horses. It is only a problem when the temp is over 80. You have two choices. You can mangage you pastures where the fescue stays 3" to 8" where the cattle are not eating seed heads or around the root system. Or spray with round up in the spring, no till annual warm season (millet or sudan) spray with round up again in the fall and not till in "friendly" endophite fescue (Max Q), endophite free fescue (I don't recoment, it gets infected if there is any 31 around) or some other cool season grass (orchard grass- don't hold up to graze'n like fescue. It is not a problem in hay as you feed hay under 89 degress most of the time. Hope this helps.
