[QUOTE="gellis888, post: 7262841, member: 149886"] Hi all, I've started using a rising plate meter since September this year to make feed budgets and try improve pasture use (outdoor wintering ewes). I've been measuring every week. Since the wetter weather and a couple of frosts I've found the plate meter is reading lower DM/ha in some of the fields. I assume the DM is still there because it hasn't been grazed? I'm using the standard x 140 + 500 formula - should I have been using different formulas? Or is this just what happens going into winter?
