chopper & buckrake neither of which are new but with 4000ac to harvest gives us more control

IIRC about 2200 engine and 1700 drum but don’t quote me

We harvest about 4000ac/yr with 6 grass cuts, 120ac wholecrop and 400ac odd maize. Wont be a massive saving but it gives us control

Seems a handy bit of kit ...

Anyone want to see some pics of my chopper? With a big pussy on the side? Ooooh ... Straight to work ... except a belt had gone (bad form by the seller who should have known- or didn't want to know - that it was fritzed)

I got that too. Never forget you're Welsh. There's lovely

Thats the key ... max milk production not cow numbers Other thing that is a must is back up from the engineers. Took us at least 3 years to get good at repairs/knowing what was wrong but still needed engineer &/or part(s) Also pay attention to running costs and be prepared for broken nights...

Something weird has happened to the threads and I’ve no idea why everyht appears to be locked. going to be a busy evening with the padlock keys. Apologies for those waiting to post

Having a nibble too before the weather turns again on Wednesday... Only dropping 120ac though as stocks very low

Holsteins 50-55 head/ machine Jersey up to 70 There are only 23 hours in a day. BUT , and it’s a big but, where do you think you’ll be re cow numbers because up to 4 or at a push 5 bots is ok, above that is a nightmare unless you have 24hr cover 7/365

Because it was starting to veer off course about a certain section of the community. Cooling off never hurt anyone
