Looks like your mowing with a proper tractor too.

Mowed off 12 acres that too far ahead of the cows here. Started second round a week ago but still keeping rotation length sensible, wet weather has definitely hit early growth rates, wouldn't have taken out silage yet in an ideal world could do with 7 of those acres in the round but needs a reset. Been grazing day and night since start of calving, no real mess just half a dozen few temporary tracks to sort out with a bucket of grass seed and a roller. Next round should be all back square though, hopefully..... Been the hardest spring grazing for a while in my book.

Tedding on a proper tractor, not too flash when it goes dark tho

Did you get the rain @pappuller

Yes had a drizzle overnight, started boxing at 11 and should be done by 6ish. 100 acres round the buildings on sand, not much travelling damage but it will be a little juicy but fertilizer and slurry will be on by weekend.
Our away land is a totally different kettle as it might just about travel with the bag muck sower for the 1st time before the weekends weather arrives.
Be circa 5 tonnes an acre so a good start

Would of been rowing up on a proper tractor too if the slip clutch on the rake hadn't shat itself before we turned a wheel, fortunately son called one of his mates in to row up
