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🙈🤣
