[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7270283, member: 86168"] sounds like a plate meter needed ! The one thing a plate meter does, that is excellent, it gets you actually measuring what you have, once you get to 'know' what an area of grass has, that gives you the confidence to get on a system of grazing, how much is there etc. Once you are confident, you can stop using it. The important bit, is giving you the confidence, to judge actual grass, ours gradually became redundant, the eyeball, and wellie measure works fine with us, we have temp electric fences, running off a mains hot wire, we can easily adjust grazing area to suit the amount of grass the dairy needs. If you hate moving electric fences, this system is not for you, at peak, we will be moving up to 10 a day, with back fencing. [/QUOTE]
