Hiya does anyone know if tupping ewes of stubble turnips affects conception and lambing percentages?
I think I read, got told that brassica crops can lock up certain minerals cobalt and iodine spring to mind, might be worth a google, and like above have them on the turnips for a couple of weeks befor tips go in or have a run off grass field so the rumen bugs don't get a shock.
Cheers bud...... Its a standing crop and I fence and shepherd it.Depends on yeild, work it out and buy the crop, standing and make sure your allowed to strip graze, get every penny of it.
Personally I've paid between 20-45/acre for neeps and kale crops.
I have been offered some stubble turnips to graze lambs on this winter.... What would be a fair price to pay for them.
