Cows out by day only since last weekend. I have about 5 or 6 days left, weather permitting .
Everything else out bar bull's that I am finishing .

That looks quite solid yet Nashmach ?
Ah now Nash, please tell me the stuff on the right you don't consider an acceptable residual??? I'd be putting heifers or something back out onto that for another week or so!
Ha sorry I'm bursting your bubble there I know, as you said 2wks later than last yr is good defo. However I still would be very slow about leaving a residual as such over the winter there, you'll end up with a dead mat of grass which will hinder regrowth the whole way through the spring, and basically until the next time you mow that field. Or you could let sheep graze it if that's an option (it's the absolutely last option for me here hahah)
Actually I've the perfect solution here, I'll send down 35 maiden calves here to graze out anything you got left for the next few weeks hahah, I'm still tight as fook for winter feed.
Nice looking bunch you have there and they doing no damage which is great

I'd say ye don't get as much rain there Nashmach as us down here in cork ?
The ground is fair sound under that zero grazer class grass ..
I've gone from a famine to a feast, 20% of my grazing is sold for zero grazing as I can't see it being cleared in the next fortnight, will be easier on the ground and a place for slurry in February.View attachment 60198 Taken this morning, another ten days if the weather stays anyway reasonable
Over 200m recorded in Arklow!
I know what both of ye were saying, but found it amusing reading these one after the other.Almost 4 inches, ya same here maybe more..
Yesterday . They are on slats today .
I got great value from strip grazing grass on several occasions this year.
