I,m looking to improve the lights in the milking parlour, because its a bit dark at udder level. What are your thoughts on placing 12v rope lights below the rump rail?
I have some first year grass/some clover ley on extremely dry land. The plan was to turn some young stock on to graze it but i feel there is too much there, so i have decided to cut it for silage. Whats the best additive to use?
This is my third heifer this year with this problem. The vets have never seen anything like it. Mostly occurs on one side of the face, swelling and possibly blindness. The white skin on nose and face comes off. The heifers were in different goups but adjacent fields. Any ideas?
Not sure if im allowed to post this but my current stock bull has decided to have a rest. Therefore im looking for a service age red and white holstein bull. Any thing out there?
I tried using straw through a west small bale chopper in my cubicles last year but it wouldnt go through the slats. Would milled straw be any better? Are there any other options?
Running low on forage for the winter, I have a field of pea and oats which was planned to be combined but could I do it into whole crop silage for the dairy herd?
My pea barley whole crop has gone too advanced, grains hardened quicker than I thought, what are my options, homendry or just wait to combine, anything else?
I grew peas and barley last year, which I combined. Just been told by my organic certifying board that I can't use it as seed unless I register it. Is this true? What is the process?
I'm in the process of concreting some old earth bed cubicles. The problem I have is that the new concrete will taper to a point against the old heel stone, will it bind?, is there a product out there that will? Or do i just cut out and remove the old concrete?
We have a few cows with high cells in one quarter but dont look any different when striped, looking for a way to identify these quarters for relief milkers.I remember years ago we had tail tape with numbers on them, does anyone still do them?
