Putting bales out for out wintering dry cows (240) and young stock. Approximately 1000 round bale hay as silage cannot be used on this site as pheasants and partridge's are reared here in their thousands as part of a shoot and they destroy plastic wrap@kill I don't get it, what are you doing with all those unwrapped bales?

Do you put a hotline next to them? Otherwist you must get an awful lot of waste I guess? Also, is there any grass left in the end or do you reseed it?Putting bales out for out wintering dry cows (240) and young stock.

How do you get on filling the minimat with seed?Ploughing and drilling barley today.
This field was due to be beet but I can't / won't grow at £19/t.
Rain from yesterday and last night has helped but still powder dry in places.View attachment 727678 View attachment 727678

Used one years ago in the days of 50kg bags ....have bad memories of stumbling across the headland carrying those bags to the drill ...[emoji33]

Sometimes you gotta love the veiw from the office window.
@sidjon probably know where I am I'd think
What boards on the plough please - my Kuhn would make a pigs ear of that
Hats off to you there, your making a focking super job, well donePloughing and drilling barley today.

You've done well to have mastered the art of tying off big bags ....whenever I want a few kg's to finish off a field ....I end up with the whole lot in the drill and feel like I've tried to wrestle a grizzly bear !!Filling the drill is the biggest issue with using the minimat.
I normally use 500kg bags and it's a fag to re tie the bottom string. Better than lugging 50kg bags though.
