Fertiliser Price Tracker

We do this on some land too. Just keep moving them every 4 weeks or so. Some of the other blocks are too big to do it. There’s definitely more grass and stock do better that way.
Not sure that some land would be much use without some fertiliser. Sometimes just a downward spiral

Why wont you do it again?
Don't feel we are getting increased amount of cattle per acre by moving them every few days. Plus it is a lot of work setting up water troughs and fences.

Might have been worth having feeding cattle on it. They might have performed better by getting fresh grass every few days. Just had a batch of cows and calves on it each year.
