Think we started sending milk a few days earlier this season too but sending more than last so off to a great start, i feel we calving a lot faster too but we don’t record as much as you so not sure 🤭 cows have been in way better condition and we too have had to help more cows calve nothing too hard though 😎
So you are starting again and up here our seasonal price starts to rise in July to 😁 Arla text today too say the milk price is holding at 35.13 for August.
Now I'm curious where your farm is, that was one of our Te Awamutu trucks and seeing it's still daylight you must be close to T.A. I'm guessing I've been there to collect you milk. I read your description, I see where you are now, no wonder he was there so quick. If it's the first farm on Bank Road then I have been there, I haven't been to the others if they are still supplying. Oh and for his truck on the 4x4, there's 4 drivers on their truck, 2 days, 2 nights, 4 days off. I'm on the 6x3 roster with 2 other drivers, 3 days, 3 nights, 3 days off, more hours to burn for the season. Oh and I love watching the calves run around the paddock, like kids playing.
How much does your culls go for across the groups : bobby calves , heifers and cows. Western Australia we’ve had at least $500 a head reduction on our cull cows
Do you shoot your bull calves? I'm thinking that there probably isn't a market for Jersey Beef. I really enjoy your videos, thank you for explaining why you make the choices you do.
