John Maher caught up with @MikeBermingham2 to discuss correcting high post grazing residuals from the difficult paddocks left at the end of the first rotation 🌱 Mike also talked about his fertiliser strategy for the 2nd round 🚜 @teagasc @teagascCorkEast @DairygoldJP
After a challenging wet spring for grazing it’s nice to see machines back in the fields. We weren’t able to graze all of our first rotation on time so now we’re mowing out some of the heavier covers for bales.
We caught up with Dairy Farmer Jim White from the @teagascT Region and he discussed how he chooses his paddocks to oversow, how he manages grazing before and after ☘️ @teagasc @PastureBase
All the hardship gets forgotten about when the sun comes out. #Farming
