Speaking of Sam. Lots of wind noise. Seems to be what happens when all you use is a [bleep] phone. Gives you an idea of how clean it project came out. I built the pipe pens because my closest corral is down the road 2 miles. Totally unnessessary when I could have used single wires for gates, but it is nice to have a place to pull a calf or load one.
That particular field was nothing but ragweed last year. Got 12 days of grazing for 100-110 pairs last year.. Changed grazing management, planted a rye/ryegrass mix and I've already got more grazing days this year on that field than all of last year. Going to seed it to warm season annuals then back to fescue/orchard clover mix.
All my fields are looking better, but the change in that field has made me a believer in moving cows.
Cows started calving March 7 for about 45 days. 50 pairs in that group. Thanks for looking.
Good lookin pasture there LJ. Greg thinks you need smaller cows but yours look pretty nice.
Greg has developed a good source for direct marketing. My goal is 1000-1200# cows with the Marbling and Quality to market on a Grid. When I get there I can feel confident that I have a quality product suitable for direct marketing. I have a ways to go, but it's moving in the right direction.
