Have many people got cattle to go? We have just a few left that are around the 24 months now. They are 650kg+ and have done well for the last 3 weeks at grass.
The crossroads now is the wonder if prices will rise over may, june and july like they have in previous years because of tighter supplies?
Is it worth the gamble to feed them for 100 days with a good finishing nut or do we keep them for 200 days and finish on grass?
Impossible to advise. My gut tells me to try to get them off as soon as possible and have extra grass for feeding other cattle and or extra silage.
