    Do’s and don’ts of propcorning?

    Can you feed treated rolled grain straight away. As in, I’ve crimped about 60ton this afternoon, can I put 300kgs in diet feeder tomorrow morning?

    Milking parlour and loose housing

    Are you serious? You scrape all of the straw out every morning? That is some work but it must work for you because cows looks clean enough. when we was loose housed we didn’t have a very good setup and our cows were always dirty and mastitis everywhere. how much straw do you use every day ?
