@farminginfife Portayards set here and very impressed 4 years into using them

Sheep mobile handling systems - recommendations please. Thinking Rappa but they all seem about the same 🤷‍♂️

@JamesAgscope What of plant is that James?

Good bit of subsoiling going on here ,no diesel or machinery needed - just plant power

@dodgsonwood Where was that? The Rainbow or Molesworth valley?

Visited the most amazing hidden valley yesterday evening, thirty miles of winding narrow dirt road through hills and gorges led to a twenty mile long valley plateau home to 8 farms ranging from 2,500 to 40,000ac #farming #astounding #hiddengems #lonelyplanet #newzealand #cattle

So we now have this remarkable headline: "red meat is not a health risk", referring to work by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME): bigthink.com/health/red-mea… However, there's some prehistory to this story, which you may find interesting... Thread 🧵 1/n

For sale 12 Luing bulling heifers. Hi-health scheme and cows outwintered. Hardy functional grass based heifers. DM for further details

@bankhousefarm01 @s_young83 @stewarbuckle If it needs to go in any deeper as 18mm I’m buggered

@s_young83 @stewarbuckle How far do you need to soil core to get a full profile? Lucky it's on a deep soil and not up Galawater

Really interesting day on Tuesday, finding out about soil carbon testing and measuring with @stewarbuckle

The annual trip to Yetholm to help out my brother in law with silage. What a Valley to live and work in. Even though there's some hellish steep bits. #awesome #dry

@BenLee27091486 Gorse coming in handy for a bit shelter. Great stuff

Cows tucked in out of the wind

@jonathansid Well I'm not entirely sure. Usually spread on silage ground once cleared in July time. Got maybe 40 tonne untreated and will be left uncovered for a comparison

This isn't a full badly rolled/ sheeted silage pit it. Its this years muck that's been treated with 250L of Actiferm and sheeted. We produce a very strawy muck so hopefully will help break it down for better quality compost/muck with better spreading ability. #Thisyearsfertiliser

@JamesAgscope How long has that been under a sheet James?

Fermented FYM or composted FYM !!!, well@it’s certainly breaking down a lot quicker under the fermented system (right side )

Hi Trev how's life? Fed up of your twin sister so come into my garden for a bit peace and quiet. #luing #twins

@Ettrickgiles @LuingCattle Outstanding Giles, a few few polled bull calves catching your eye?

21 days into #calving2022 and that is 80% calved. #luingsthething great fertility @LuingCattle

The last morning check of the cows on the hill before bringing them closer to home for calving. #luingsthething #calvingtime #wooplawluings

@andrew_tullie Enjoy and catch you on the other side

That's the start of that then.

And they are off and freedom it is. Fresh air and a good view will keep them going. #luingsthething #bullcalves

I love our garden and gardening in general (great way to unwind). But this row of daffodils infront of our house always impresses me year on year for a bit spring cheer.

@JamesAgscope How North?

Lucerne up north, I’m thinking it looks worse than it really is ! Just waiting for a growth jump out of the Lucerne
