One of the many excuses used by the anti-paddock brigade is the inconvenience that the extra infrastructure brings when the silage harvester comes out – more gaps to negotiate, more strips that the blades can’t get to and tighter turns. Cost is the other peeve of paddock-sceptics, though many drystock farmers will say it’s the best money they’ve spent. This spring, one of our northeastern BETTER farmers looks to have overcome both of these issues with a clever adaptation of his grazing area.
