[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7553919, member: 86168"] bit dependant on amount of grass, but fag packet calculation, the total weight of our grazing cows, excluding dry stock, is 85250kg, putting them at 550kg, they would be getting a bit under an acre per feed, someone cleverer than me, can work the 'ideal' out, av 25litres of milk/day, getting the 'right' amount of grass, without leaving to much, or grazing to tight, is a experience only, difficult calculation, we don't do to badly. Another fag packet calculation is 85250kg at £2/kilo barren, live weight is £170,500, a sobering thought. Or, £7.50 milk/day, x 155, is £1123 value/bulk tank. Really doesn't pay to start playing with the calculator, sometimes ! [/QUOTE]
