[QUOTE="BobbySusie, post: 6517613, member: 139542"] Look at the wiki page, calves weight at birth is between 14-22kg. They get to around 300 kg max, plus very few people have heard of them. If I was looking to increase my stocking rate, I would look at measuring my grass and improving the quality of my grass, first of all, think of the amount of cattle you can carry with an extra ton of DM. How many ton of grass do you grow per acre at the minute. Teagasc have a done some work on dairy farming on heavier land and on wetlands, if you look at it you can pick up a lot of info on how to improve grass production. [/QUOTE]
