TEDDING USING GPS/ TOPPING RECOMMENCES AND GRASS GROWING AGAIN
Hi all and welcome back to Drone Dairys and my apologies on the delay between the videos.
As we approach mid August it’s time to focus on grass management and slurry. Growth has improved greatly and it’s time to start cleaning up paddocks again with the disc mower. We also keep experimenting with the Gypsy Technologies GPS tractor guidance system as we ted hay for a customer.

I hope to use it in the future at ...
TOO MUCH GRASS AND NIOT ENOUGH EITHER
Просмотров 6 тыс.2 месяца назад
Battling the worst summer ever for grass growth to try and keep the cows munching on grass. In comparison the heifers on the out block have far too much in front of them. Is zero grazing an option? Are us farmers carrying too much stock for the ever changing climate ? # #cavanfarmer #masseyferguson #dairyfarmer #farming #agriculture #dronedairys #grass
