[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 8151059, member: 86168"] its great when things turn out right, sometimes its a leap of faith. we are seeing big results after a couple of years trying bits, gives you the faith to keep trying things. Beginning to think we will have fert left over, for next yr, never thought l would say that. Very particular about silage quality, and usually multi cut, not to sure we need bother this year, pp to cut now, = main pit stuffed, 2nd cut, will go 'somewhere' = plenty enough silage. Maize gone into ideal conditions, only ploughed 2.5 acres, the rest subsoiled, tine/disc machine worked, and a very quick shallow pass with p/h, hope it saves the worms. Our contractor, has strip tilled some of his maize, that will be very interesting to follow, if it works, got to be good for soil. He cut his grass, same time/stage as ours, 17% pro and 12.5 ME, lets hope we match it. Our grazing overtook us again, interesting to see, cows have been desperate for something solid, these last wet days, dry yesterday, last night, they left half the hay, today, didn't want to even move, is that longer/stemmier grazing, filling them up, without the 'extra'. We have jumped a few acres, 14 acres, to get 'on top' again, grass growth is unbelievable. [/QUOTE]
