farmer on a bike
Member
I have taken on a contract farming agreement on a farm with a fast exit parlour which has a big muck tray that covers cows freeze brands. The parlour has auto ID but sometimes it seems to miss cows. Checking is almost impossible without getting out of the pit to read ear tags.
Therefore I am considering buying plastic ankle straps marked with the cows line numbers. I have been quoted £2.30/strap. But how long will the straps last and are they easy to read or do they get quite mucky? Has anyone experience of these type of straps?
