The weather isn’t playing ball with us this week in Kilkenny, so the cows have been re-introduced to concrete over the last few days and confined to quarters since. We’ve had rain, snow, wind and generally cold and miserable weather to be out farming in. Hopefully things will improve next week, and we can get back out to grass even for a few hours most days.There looks to be a few more heavy pulses of rain on the way through the weekend so we are probably looking at next week at the earliest to get them back out to grass, but we will walk a few paddocks every day and see how ground conditions are looking. The cubicles will have to suffice in the meantime.
