Haylage Harvest Finished
Posted on 14. Jul, 2010 by Ben in Blog
Finally after rainfall in early June, our haylage harvest got off to a flying start. Whilst temperatures hit the 80s, we cut baled and wrapped all our grass for haylage. We also had all our hay in by the end of June.
The cold spring and limited rainfall has clearly limited growth resulting in supplies being 20% down but luckily we had taken on extra grass to compensate. We now have the right tonnage to look after our repeat customers and some left for new ones.
Sampling begins soon and we would expect quality to be good.
The dry weather has restricted grass in our paddocks and our liveries are all looking in good form. With 40 acres of paddocks we have more than enough grazing to go around (all year) and some left over for the sheep as well!
