Also depends on whether your in a cull area.You Normally have to do your first short interval test after breakdown and then when any reactors have left the holding you can apply for a license. Our first si test was on Friday hopefully reactors being collected next Friday and then get a license and get some replacements in.

Lifting the last load of first cut earlier this evening. First time using the Strautmann wagon, it's been a steep learning curve but happy with it overall once I got the hang of it and we sorted out a few issues.View attachment 1036294

Our old self propelled harvester which we sold, to a buyer in Zimbabwe of all places!

Seeing those photos of silage going in, how much fert have people banged on for 2nd cut?
Struggling with figures here...
RB209 suggests for an extra 2t DM/ha you need 50kgN/ha, or 200kg/ha of 25% AN.
@ £650/t that is £130, or £65 per extra tonne DM. Plus application, harvest costs, etc. Is it worth it?

It’s not that bad. Usually buy it cheaper than we could make it. However my cows are dry and this yr will it be there ??Business as usual for fert on silage ground. You can’t get something from nothing & can’t think of anything worse than running out of silage mid winter
Will you be able to buy it cheaper this year though with so many people talking about spreading less fert?It’s not that bad. Usually buy it cheaper than we could make it. However my cows are dry and this yr will it be there ??
Yes. Tonnes of forage about. Not many local to here need any more silage or have room for itIt’s not that bad. Usually buy it cheaper than we could make it. However my cows are dry and this yr will it be there ??
30 units + slurry, but a bit understocked, so doing well on the winter grub, will make as much as we can, in case of a bad next year.Seeing those photos of silage going in, how much fert have people banged on for 2nd cut?
