Hey Bert, Lovely farm,...... you sound like a kiwi farmer ;],.....I practice rotational grazing etc have done for years,..... just a thought , the organic farmers say the moon waxes and wanes ,.....ie rises for two weeks and falls for two weeks , so 28 day process. So if you have a round less than 4 weeks you are short circuiting the natural cycle, as in for two weeks the energy goes into whats below the ground, so every round you think boy I'm running out of grass its just not growing like it should , and the next two weeks you think wow look at it grow, so I've always stayed on a minimum of 28 day round , also the extra cover helps keep the moisture in the ground better .We use a grazing planner in Nz for calculating winter grazing rounds transitioning out into a spring round, assisting with areas consumed on any given day , which I think you'd find handy. It must help with the marketing of your product all those health outdoor cows :] 😊
Bert is the quintessential dairy grazing farmer!
Great job! Bert's got an impressive farm!
Very nice to see. I would debate with anyone who says the best thing for a cow is to be on concrete 24/7.
