You'll be self sufficient by then.Could look cheap by March, but I think I'll wait and see, never have any spare money in the autumn to buy anyway.
October grass as good as May silage is it not?Aurivo 29.5p,cows in last night,time to feed them, what's grass worth at the minute, I think very little
Ours are now housed full time, about 3 or 4 days now, already seeing the difference on the milk docket!Aurivo 29.5p,cows in last night,time to feed them, what's grass worth at the minute, I think very little

This is an exceptional year, cows normally in at night 2 to 3 weeks, plenty of grass but a candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long. Hoping to keep them out by day for October
