by feeding those lego bricks, you are 'saving' poaching, that can't be bad, plus bringing in some extra p + k, those lego bricks were the ideal way, to feed cattle outside, in winter, bales on trailor, chuck the flaps out, as you drove along, if like me, tractor in bottom gear, me on the trailor, to save wages, but you didn't end up with the mess around round feeders.
Had a look at our hay, cut thursday evening, new growth between the swathes, is already sprouting 2ins tall, beginning to realise, we haven't got enough stock, and we cannot afford to buy, at these prices, for stores, l just cannot see a profit in them. Was also told, second and third quality milkers, have risen £400 a head, in the last couple of months, perhaps top quality milkers, will reach £3,000 by the autumn, as predicted by some ! But there are still cows out there, worth the money, by not calving the autumn group till november, they haven't quite risen by so much, and we have about 20, on their way, £850, delivered. But milkers at £2000 even, with land at £280 to rent.................
For reference, we had 29.74 ppl for june, that will be +0.8, for july, +better constituents, that is actual money paid into bank, not before the 'bits', taken off, as some like to quote.
