[QUOTE="M-J-G, post: 7815975, member: 1819"] Sounds OK on a ranch where Cows are stocked at 1 per 5 or 10 acres I've calved in Jan and weaned in late October/november with cows outwintered on sandy paddocks until calving Cows indoors to calve and outside again ASAP. This is OK done on sandy parts of the farm, but the idea of leaving 150 plus cows out with calves all winter sounds like a mess, even in a fairly dry area like ours. I see they are growing cover crops, triticale and feeding hay. How much cheaper is that than feeding dry cows straw and rough silage outdoors three times a week after the cslved are sold off in the autumn? [/QUOTE]
