at that stocking rate I wouldn't be spendi g money on fertiliser. you could work a rotation of 75 days at that. and almost have no need for making silageI’ve often thought about it as I’m only 75 acres 20 cattle plus calves. but I dunno if I could be bothered trying to source all the organic produce for the winter etc. There’s no local corn mills that do organic around here.
Plus the possible need for extra organic bales etc.
And extra paperwork.
I’ve got enough on with standard and red tractor paper work
plus work full time.
Maintainence of the Farm.
Look after 5 rented properties on Farm when needed.
Help out with my newly disabled brother.
Oh and a young daughter on the way come next February.
I think I’ll stay non organic as I want the Farm for my pleasure and not be to beurautic/ tied down /stressful.
