I guess it’s a good thing they are scared to cross where the wire used to be. It’s attempt at grazing the neighbours cover crops

20% of this bunk is not fed each day because the feeder is hesitant to get close to the walls. Any suggestions? Do other folks with self loading TMRs use a loader to clean things up, how often?
I have an audience checking wind speeds today. Looks like the natural ventilation isn’t cutting it, so good thing there are some box fans giving me 10-12 km/hr blowing the other way

This group of calves are a wild bunch. Little payback for the dog who was doing a little chasing earlier.

New footbath installed, 10ft long but still 200L. If your spending the time and money to get concentration and frequency right, let’s make it effective and ensure two dunks per foot
My wife was delivering twine today and a couple rolls decided to start unwinding…..for 6 km😂😂. Apparently it’s quite a workout gathering it all back up
How does heifer inventory affect bottom line, this dairy has 200 less heifers by using a strict protocol of sexed and beef semen. I don’t care what cost/HD/day u pick, that saving is huge.
Looking for some insight from the agronomy about cutting height on hay fields. 80:20 stand, lots of inventory so wondered about cutting higher to improve quality and how regrowth would be affect by liquid manure application. Any input greatly appreciated
I see a bunch of cereal rye acres coated in manure today, I’m sure a bunch of planters are about to pull into those fields this weekend. With very dry soil conditions at the moment how deep should we be placing those seeds? @phhermans @lhudson89 @gcarrod @markagroen
