Thanks your all videos , horse compost

Very good information for beginners

Cool!

How much does it cost to build 1m2 in dollars? Is it the ideal floor for building a horse pasture?

Thanks so helpful

Good info! Thank you!

How do you lock the hitch onto the ball?

Thanks again Dr. K. You are looking good.

Howdy?~ what a awesome upload, University!🤩

If I am mowing regularly do I need to drag? I kinda assumed the mower spread the poop well enough.

Thank you.

We have horses, goats, pigs, and chickens so in what order should we rotate them and in what order?

Thank you for this thorough assessment.. Lander .Wyoming

What about pour ons like Brute?

Many weeds have high values of nutrients and minerals, is there a specific reason why you dont want all weeds or just some certain weeds?

What name brand is your scale?

Hi, I've been making my own fly spray for horses, but interested to see your comment on the citronella bands. Any tips on how to 'make' those?

Are areas like this okay for unshod horses?

Well done and helpful. A bit much to do for one person but very good information.

I am going to bale 3 or so acres only so that I can cut the real estate taxes. If I make money on the hay, it's a plus, but if I didn't bale it as hay, it would actually cost me more in fuel since I would be mowing it at least once a week. So for the cost of some used equipment, less than $5K for it all, there is a potential to reduce taxes by more than $2,000 a year. I still have to fertilize, so thats a moot point. Might as well try selling it instead of wasting it. I could lease it out for farmers, but then have to look at torn up ground and corn or beans in the back yard, and there is already enough of that on 3 sides of me. This is something that I pondered several years now, but not something everyone should do since the old equipment must be serviced and you better know how or it will cost you more in money than anything. I got an old NH 273 baler for $1200, spend $100 in parts and having it singing like an angel, for now. :) The mower needs TLC, but is a good base to work with, and the rake is like new now that I rebuilt most of it, still with all that, the rake cost less than any others I found. You have to shop around for them to find deals and you must know what to look for so you aren't sitting with a lawn ornament. I already have a tractor for work around the place. might as well put it to good use.

this helped a lot!!! My horse is between a 5 and a 6. I guess sometime this week I'll have a closer look and then I'm going with the average......

Excellent video..... Thanks..

loved the video very usefull but i have no idea how if you fell in a creek and needed this stuff you wouldint be able to get it because you cant carry a huge plastic bin on the back of your horse all the time

Great

Thanks for the video! This lesson answered clearly the questions I had about my hay.

Great video and a practical first aid kit although I would always have my kit in a backpack or something similar so that it's easier to travel with and have if I get in trouble

Thanks

Thanks so very much for providing such a wonderful, concise formula for horse owners! (Now if we could only get back to selling hay correctly, by ton! Hay is a commodity and should be priced as such, in all fairness!)

This is how not to apply a standing bandage

Excellent information and so well presented. Really helpful. 😊

Most horse people don't know anything about hay

20 lbs of hay a day is A LOT of hay for many horses. I have been taught 1.5 is acceptable for horses who are easy keepers.

Keep up the great work!

Great job Dr. Bob - proud to have you as our President Elect

Very informative and objective video; thanks!

This is such a great video! I really needed it, thank you!

I used to grow horse hay for a few specific people. In this video John Strohfus touched on it, horse people are picky and often unrealistic. Another thing I would add, horse people, don't like to pay. they complain and complain, then they want you to cut the price in half, then if you do make a deal the check will bounce and they will ignore you to get out of paying. I would say it is easy to make horse hay, hard to sell it. I gave it up because the horse people, minus a select few, were terrible buyers.

nice!

Very helpful video!! This will definitely help me for my text next week

I'm retired and have a small farm in SW Pennsylvania. Several years ago we sold all the livestock and now sale hay for both horses and cattle. On a good year I'll make enough to pay the taxes and fuel for the year. But there's no place I'd rather be then out in a hay field.

The formula for ideal bodyweight on the original web page appears to be incorrect. For the example in the video the formula returns 2431 lbs.

My trainer always had the small travel size versions of the triple antibiotic in her kit because the big tubs can get dirty quickly and its easier to throw the small tube away than the tub.

My uncle used to make very good hay with meadow fescue and timothy, also a good amount of clover. Although it was used to feed cows, there was very little dust in it, which would be good for horses. He also made a small amount of loose hay one year, which would have been ideal, as it had not been cut by a baler.

" Make Hay while the SUN Shines "

Great video. This is a very important video for new people getting into haying. We did it for 25 years with only 35 acres of hay. I spent more on equipment than I ever brought in. Our goal was to feed our animals, and I engaged the neighbors for help. This is when they were long on horses and short on cash. I also stored the hay. I the last 5 years I lost my help found it easier to to buy than to make, so I converted to round bales. Thanks for doing this video.

Nice job on the video. I'd add a few comments for people looking to get into the market. First, build a clientele of horse and non-horse customers. By that I mean folks with sheep, cattle, goats or even landscapers looking for erosion control. Then if the crop doesn't meet horses standards you'll have other potential customers. Second, build relationships with people, by looking to have the livestock owner be successful so you can be too. If market prices go through the roof one year, think carefully about how much you raise prices for long-term customers. You don't want them out of business when the market goes soft again. Third, consider saving some bales for late winter auctions. Like in April 2018 the auctions were a great market.

Really like that the reduced lignin variety offers flexibility in harvest intervals....

My great Uncle used a Dump Rake pulled by horses.

This is an excellent video and very helpful. Very practical information! Thanks.
