Having a small trial of bale grazing here using 16 cow/calf pairs on a field of 4 acres or so. The field has been rested since it was last grazed in May/June. It is also just about our driest field and its on a slope so hopefully it should give us some interesting results. Currently cattle have been out for about 9 days and seem well contended with it. They are being moved each day in cells of roughly 26m x 24m and 1 bale of hay rolled out daily.

Great job Jonny. What a winter to try it in as well! Great the stock did well on it. Looking forward to seeing the spring recovery process. How much cover do you reckon was on the field you did the trial on? And was it one of your drier fields or how did you select which field to have go with it on?
