[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7578581, member: 718"] For the first time in at least a couple of decades I've had to rehouse the cows in late May, day and night, because it is so wet and cold for them and they are making an unacceptable mess of the fields and pastures. Also it is probably only the third or fourth time in the last 40 years that silage first cut will be a month delayed and in June. I need about a week or more of dry weather now before allowing silage machinery on the fields. Priority now switched from quality silage to clean silage with no mud and minimising damage to fields through compaction and tracking/getting stuck. What's it like with you? Maybe you have sandy free-draining soil and can carry on as usual? Perhaps you have no silage left and therefore no option other than to send the cows out into the mud? Challenging times. [/QUOTE]
