I want to put some more drinkers in fields, but last year I put a temporary trough straight on the ground in what I thought was a dry part of the field, only to have it turn rapidly into a sea of mud for about 10 yards all around. I'm thinking I need to dig out an area and pack it with hard core, but how big does it need to be? Are there any alternatives like maybe ground stabilising mesh, or does this stuff have anything to offer?

Could add a fair bit to the cost of a trough
Its for groups of 30-40 cows and calves. Sheep too but its the cattle that cause the damage
