I just love you Jasper. So keen and loveable. Interesting seeing a scanner not sitting in the dark, must been a good clear screen. Good luck boys, with the 29.
Absolutely another great video and as always beautiful sharing adventure documentary updated resume countryside content video, keep it up Sir and have a wonderful blessing weekend to you and your beautiful family over there .. Merci beaucoup Monsieur
Our local Butcher in Ngatea does super good packing too. Makes a massive difference to how easy freezer is to stack and how it is to find exactly what you are after.
Good video again watching from very dry sheep farm in North Wales 🏴.we are selling lambs now at 13wks old av live weight 43kgs after creep feeding.hope you have a good lambing as you have more grass in winter than we have in summer 🥵👍
@@kiwifarmernz 17% protein feed costing £355 per tonne.Awwww but better conversion of feed in young lambs compared to feeding 9month old lambs🐑👍🏴
Just seen ur video brother. I just got a doubt... do u ever take rest nspend time for yourself... i feel you are working like a clock all year round. Keep going brother. You are an I spiraling to many
Ewes look well,the heifer weighed really well. Do you think the free trade deal with the UK will help your prices or will it all get lost in admin costs. Really dry in Uk. No sign of rain for weeks 🙃
I’ve heard dry rate is up this year so far We use longdown (coopworth texel) as our material very good fertility ave 200% scanning 150-160% lambing good growth as well Do you get many feet issues foot rot or scold? What’s your thoughts on shedding/hair sheep? Cheers
I was talking last night to a mate in forestry, man they are doing it tough. Cost are $107 to $117 a tonne and export price is $87. The industry is limping along, Kaiangaroa forest on a three day week but soon it will come to an abrupt stop. Reason China is not buying. We could have issues with Beef and lamb into China and odd things in the States with Brazil hitting it's import beef quota in third month of the year. They think a lot of Brazilian beef is in storage. Dairy farmers up here have pulled back on winter grazing which is putting stress on store markets, prices are crazy high. Much of East coast still needs fencing but it's too wet and farmers still waiting for insurance and grants to afford it. Mate with 2.3 mill in debt has gone from $8700 a month in interest to nearly 20k a month. We may end up in interesting times.
I stopped scanning, one cost gone. Made no difference to my income and now prices have afallen and looking like more on the downside, costs are going to matter
@@gennabird107 I dropped stocking rate a little and fed all my sheep better. I started farming when interest rates were %18-22. Profit is always the gap between expenses and income. Better sheep bigger lambs earlier drafts less risk etc was the way I went. Less costs = more time with family actually led to profitable business. Those big singles were my most valuable lambs
@@gennabird107 I look at us as herd animals, the need to fit in , to conform means we end up doing what everyone else is doing even when is just so obviously wrong.
