I run a 504M (not the M classic) and have been very pleased with it so far. The M series is designed for silage so high moisture baling, plugging is not a problem. The M series has a lot of improvements over the previous series of balers. Bigger chains and sprockets and a new twine feed...

I have a priefert, my dad has a filson. My main knock on the filson is the bar that operates the squeeze. It is too heavy and will often fall down on its own, squeezing the chute when you don't want it to. Also, the bar is right at forehead height when in the squeezed position. I've hit my...

Thanks for posting about this sale. I had asked about the Lone Star sale in December; however, Mt. Pleasant is much closer. I downloaded the numbers but how will these bulls stack up as far as phenotype since there are no pictures available? Would like to stay away from the hatchet-shaped...

Anyone been to one of these sales or used their bulls? Need an angus and I am considering making the trip to the December 5 sale.

My understanding is that about 90% can be recycled through the cow. I am adding a lot of chicken litter to my place because I need the P and K. I can see how MIG can concentrate nutrients where they are needed but I am curious how nutrients can be added without an outside source.

Nap, I am also located in south Arkansas and I would encourage you to talk to Dr. Paul Beck at the University of Arkansas research center at Hope. I attended a presentation he did on this subject about a year ago. The comments here are in line with what the research shows. One thing Dr. Beck...
