haven't even turned out here yet, fields still soft, nearly got the tractor stuck a couple of times in the wet patches
...and when will it start growing again? We had enough grass a month ago and could almost have turned the cattle all out. Fast forward four weeks and the place looks like a desert. Spring calving cows have been out for three weeks and are still eating silage. We have had some rain but not much. The main problem is that it's very cold still and the wind has been from the north or east for a while now. Couldn't even consider shutting off silage fields yet as the sheep need every possible acre.
What's it like around the country?
70kg/acre of N I'm told.Looking good @Great In Grass. I wish my Westerwolds looked like that. Any idea how much fertiliser was applied?
Doesn't look to shabby does it.Wow, thats got big muscles!!
Might have to get some dotted in around here...
Had a couple of nights with some sort of damp/ drizzle but the forecast on metcheck is showing a lot of rain for Friday,
Not very often I ask for rain but I'm hoping they're right this time!

Suspect they are in some way working as fifth-columnists for EU.
BBC weather on the internet is pretty good here. The 10 day forecast is never too far out.BBC has gone to pot.
