Greetings, dear farmers. I see from the comments that you have very big difficulties with the land. I am from Siberia and I have a hobby of breeding horses. I have a lot of land for grazing and making hay. There are tractors and everything necessary for making hay. If any of you really want to start breeding beef cattle, then I can offer you this breeding here in Siberia on partnership terms. Our meat market is experiencing an acute shortage of meat, so this niche can be said to be empty and without competition. On my land areas You can increase the number of broodstock to 3000. Breeds such as Hereford, Galloway, and Angus are suitable for our climate. If you're interested, I'm looking forward to hearing from you. Write to me in the comments

This will be the top Item in the Viewing Guide in the next issue of Practical Farm Ideas. Jim underlines two critical issues: 1 - reducing the cost of replacements by keeping older cows which might have slipped a few months, or maybe even lost a quarter because the barrener sells for €750 but her replacement heifer costs €1,500 and produces 10 - 20% less milk. 2. Getting palatable fibre into cows, especially in spring. Feeding zero graze grass is his solution. Excellent video

Hi. When you start feeding the grass is it grass only or are you still supplementing with the TMR? Could you run the cows on grass all year @ 4-5kg dry matter if you had the grass available? Thanks.

Cows are on grass full time since 10th of February via zero grazer. Ground conditions too wet to let out cows for 2nd rotation. doing very little damage with zero grazer. 2 kg less concentrates less in parlour and higher litres , protein and fat than other years. Re growth much quicker. IMO they are the way forward.

What about the cows natural environement which is outside. I farm organically and would not dream of depriving my animals of the enjoyment of the sun and wind on their bodies.

What do you do when it's too wet?

I’ll “invest” in letting my cattle graze with 2 moves per day. Not capital expenditure’s on equipment to bring the feed to them, and then bring the fertility back to the land. It takes less Human Resources to do it my way with well trained cattle. People wonder why farmers go broke….

Man who sells zero grazers for a living thinks zero grazers are great. In other news rain is wet, very very very very very wet.

Zero grazing is nothing new. In the 70’s and 80’s a lot of farmers were green chopping with New Holland flail mowers which blows the grass into feeder or dump wagons.

It's an old system for sure. Farmers have been doing it for years.
