There’s no getting away from the rain this spring, with any step forward in ground conditions quickly followed by two steps back. We are managing to keep cows out grazing most of the time but there’s a fair amount of clay visible around gaps and water troughs when cows are finished grazing each paddock.Hopefully things improve before the second rotation, so we don’t compound any damage by cutting into ground again. Most of the damage done so far is just superficial and at worst will need a few grass seeds thrown out and a roll when conditions improve. Hopefully we can hold it at that level of damage for the next week or two.
