The chicory is looking really really good and ready for grazing so I am starting them on it this week and they will get it every day up until april when it gets planted back in grass.
I also need to decide what I am going to do with the bulls as they need to go to the works but there's been a delay, they need to come out of the cow as well

Hope you have a great Christmas and a happy new year. I am trying my best to beat COVID. I feel really rough, but so glad i have your RU-vid channel to keep me entertained. Farm looks amazing. Keep bringing the vlogs there are brilliant.

That little Bull has got attitude so on the truck. Gee that spreading truck has a nice sound to it.Merry Christmas to you and your Whanau. Special mention to your Dad for embracing new technology sometimes reluctantly and he is younger than me 😂

Merry Christmas to you too! Hope you have a great time with family and friends over the festive season. He comes around eventually 😉😂

Great video. We put our cow's on chicory 1/2 hectare hour a day 360 cow's strips or square brake no back fence depending on the paddock size 3 or 4 days very surprising how fast they eat it

@TheOnceADayFarmer 10 месяцев назад

That’s perfect! Would be great not having to back fence 👌

I’ve heard that before actually! Great little tip, maybe it should try it next time 👍

@rigger314 10 месяцев назад

They put the lime on at night here in the Burdekin North Queensland mainly due to the wind during the day, whereas it is normally quite still at night here. Well if there isnt a cyclone about.

@TheOnceADayFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Ahh that’s interesting and makes sense! 👌

@johnordidge2411 10 месяцев назад

At what seed rate do you sow your chicory and how many years do you leave it down for?

@ronaldlucas5360 10 месяцев назад

Those bulls sound rough and tough.

Hi Andrew, love the videos mate and just wondering if you have any advice for a 23 year old from the UK with a WHV looking to work on a dairy farm for 3-4 months starting Jan. appreciate any pointers.

@TheOnceADayFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Just go with your gut feel I think and give it all. Thats awesome you get to come down here though 👌 hope you have a mint time!

@caveweta 10 месяцев назад

Could do with some rain locally, that SW wind has really dried out the paddocks around Ngahinapouri. And that wind has buggered the peach trees, almost the entire crop is on the ground. Grrrrr!

@plzdont6110 10 месяцев назад

Does the Chicory re-grow after the cows have been through?

yes about 20-25 days for them to rotate through the paddocks usually

Why don't you use beef bulls?

Don’t want to put them over the heifers, want easy calving

Just came across this. "JAGYU© is Dawe Estates premium beef brand. Our special Wagyu/Jersey hybrid animals brings the taste qualities of Wagyu to the surplus calves of a our partners Jersey dairy herd. Wagyu and Jersey both have natural intra muscular fat “Marbling” that gives extra flavour to the meat."

@TheOnceADayFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Those wagyu/jersey one i processed a while back certainly didn’t meet our expectations, little underwhelmed to be honest, hope the next ones better 🤞 Wagyu also have a longer gestation length

@pjdee5879 10 месяцев назад

@@TheOnceADayFarmer I'll certainly take your word for it. Do you know what breed of Wagyu you used?

@keithwheeler8875 10 месяцев назад

They sure love that chicory not sure if anyone in the UK grazes chicory it's not something I've seen. So how does it work with your bulls do you buy 4 new bulls from someone each year then you use them for x weeks to clean up then they go off for meat ?

@TheOnceADayFarmer 10 месяцев назад

Yep buy them from the same person, my stock agent sorts it out. 4 new ones which go with the heifers then the cows the following year then to the works after that
