Finally got most of our maize land dried enough to drill, aprox 37 acres in this afternoon

Anybody local run a tractor driven stone crusher (bit like a heavy duty rotavator) we used RTW road restoration ltd to do our lane, - crushed the lane, re-graded and then mixed in cement powder, was considerably cheaper than concrete and tarmac. https://www.rtwroadrestoration.co.uk/

Nice deangate casper heifer calf this morning

And tonight’s revelation has been signposted by the script writers for months

And we know the long arm of the law in Ambridge can’t even find out who nicked the bunting from the green, never mind work out who was actually driving on Sunday night.

Fair play to anybody that makes the money off YouTube, it takes time effort and skill to do it well and you’ll still get on the bitching on TFF 🤣🤣. in the case of Charlotte and Roy, I think Roy is a fairly savy business operator and I think he would bring a fair bit of investment to the farm...

Not watched enough to be sure but there looked to be a Lely grazing gate in the back ground, so assuming planing to turn out

They bought complete herd, first time dairy farming for them, but think previous farmer had cows on that farm. But complete new build shed plus robots. Amazed how well startup with robots went, until she said cows had been in a shed with similar layout and same type of robots. I did spot a few...

Yes, another local farmer unfortunately decided the pressure was too much this week 😢

1 merchant trying to buy barley of me on Wednesday at £177 (not Jamesons) might be worth me getting the wheel barrow out and bringing it to your yard

But it would turn the barley a nice shade of orange

Dead tractor seems to drive more dairy farmers out of production than EA, mainly by grinding them down with pettiness. (This actually affects smaller farmers that care about animal welfare, but they seem quite happy to let large multi site operators with major animal welfare issues keep farming)

Seems a common thing, by the time you’ve found you have cows that suit your system well, the bull is long gone. One of my favourite cows is by a bull called Newhouse scurry, - he never made it through cornerstone testing (genus) and I’d have loved to use more straws by him

Just looked at that post, going on the comments underneath it could fit. I know they did say they were stopping doing their own silaging when the grass kit was sold off. Think if was going silaging for them with their track record I’d want cash up front.

Is Tom rawson still on the gravy train at AHDB?

Don’t be offending us muppets, by lumping that member with us

Even sleet and hailstones this afternoon

The IRONY it’s my picture of cows grazing, and I put my Lely robot in, in 2010

When I look at grazing residuals now, I just pretend I’m trendy, mob grazing and treading organic matter in to increase soil carbon🤣 not that I f@*#ed the job up🙈🤣

Which one of Evolution farmings herds has this video come from? I see this months cow management magazine has a write up about their Leicestershire based herd- 1000 cows,10 staff, eldest staff member 28. Interesting to read it in context with this thread and then read the last paragraph of Roger...
