[QUOTE="onthehoof, post: 3504754, member: 11104"] [USER=63856]@Kiwi Pete[/USER], out of curiosity I sometimes look at farms for sale in NZ, can you clarify a couple of things, they often mention stock units which is the capacity of the farm presumably in a 'normal' year, am I right in thinking 1 stock unit is equivalent to 1 cow per 5 acres roughly? Also they will say Farm is capable of 'wintering' so many livestock units, is this because this is the minimum the Farm can keep as presumably you can keep more stock in summer, what I'm trying to say is why say wintering instead of summering.Thanks [/QUOTE]
