    Dairy farming wellies

    I saw a lad ask online about parlour mats to ease the pressure on his father while milking and was told to buy just one and cut the wellie footprint out and glue them on his fathers wellies. Job done for the price of one parlour mat

    Leader follower grazing

    I wouldn't think so? The calves will have the choice of the most nutritious grass in the paddock, the third leaf. They're in there for 24 to 48 hours before being moved onto the next paddock and the grass will mostly be growing dry matter at higher rates than the calves are consuming so...
