60 bucks a year doesn't cover the lost feed. Whats the plan when you get 2 ft of snow the first of November? Sure this might work in southern Saskatchewan but not in Northern Alberta. Its been done and tried here and there have been way too many wreaks.
@@72alta haha educate yourself bale grazing is not a waste because of the return you get on pasture rejuvenation. Keep going broke wasting fuel and loosing money on the depreciation of iron
This guy is not a good farmer. You loose so much energy and calories from not converting it to silage. Al he ended up yes the corn and the dry corn stalk. Good job my friend. You just throw out so much food. Yes it is more expensive to make silage but you also get more. Lazy farmers that's all it is. They don't want to work a lot. Look cattle here in Europe. We have more productive farm with only 40-100 cows. Why ? Because we work with then day and night. And they look clean and healthy unlike those miniature Angus cattle.
that may be the case, but you do what you can afford too. it cost alot of money to turn corn into silage, especially if you do now have your own equipment to do so
I would not say that this isn’t lazy farming by any means. Not only are producers such as himself working towards longer grazing days through out the winter but also to let the cows do some of the work for you. They have every ability to eat corn and corn stalks as well as move their own manure and waste throughout the field with out having to start a tractor! In my mind every day that a tractor doesn’t need to be started is another bonus day! I’d do some more research about cattle farming in the prairies before you go putting more of this stuff on RUclips!! No farmer is lazy that’s for sure !
Little bright European SUBSIDIZED farmer eh? This is far more cost effective in the cold Canadian climate. Btw bright one...Nothing is lost...it's goes right into the soil ;) improving organic matter content. I've done this for 5 years now. Very efficient in all regards
we feed this way in south africa for over 300 years and still going.
