Tommy Gough Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Bit been done down here as well so that maize can be put in. Is that whats going to happen here or will it be cut again later in the year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdeere6910 Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Well the farm usually takes about 5 cuts. But they are growing maize for an AD plant. The land is fairly heavy though so time will tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordantaylor Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 the college i go to are about to cut about 30 acres due to having nothing left in the clamp so it will be mixed with what little amount of maize is left and fed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 loads of kit running arround being prepped this way but nothing cut yet that i have seen, cant be to far away as the weather recently has been warm but wet, and the grass has really shot up big time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdeere6910 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 It's completely the opposite with us, many farms got some bumper cuts of silage and haven't fed or can't sell it. At home we could keep the cows in for another 2 months if we had enough straw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
