    Yard scrapers, Hydraulic adjustable, tyres etc

    I searched for about yard scrapers before posting and you ask this every time. Were on sand, auto scrapers don't like sand, i also don't really like the bow wave of slurry from auto scrapers over their feet, or the scrapers knocking there legs and feet. But mainly the sand, maintenance cost of...

    Since the other thread has turned into arguing I thought we could try a different tack... What's your favourite farm you've visited, could be most impressive, most time off, best looking cattle whatever just try to keep it positive?

    Cow Manager tags - anyone got good or bad experiences?

    Cow manager.... There's more maintenance to it than I expected, lose more tags than I'd like more fail prematurely than I'd like, it gives you a little anxiety because you can't get away from your problems even for an hour or two. But it's exceptional, we're an 11,000 litre herd last vet...

    Milk Price Tracker

    I honestly think we give ourselves to much credit for controlling our production. We all largely try to get the best out of whatever system we run all the time. Good weather helps forage quality and effects national production. I don't think they're is a conscious decision to manipulate...
