I set my draft to lift some on a hard pull. And use the position control to lift and control depth

You know Herefords are prone to cancer eye.

Some interest around here in PA. Personally. I don't think the markets have developed. I would hate to go to the expence to produce a crop and can't sell it.

I grow turnips every year. Cattle were slow to eat them at first. After they got started, they like them. I have had a cow choke on one of the bulbs, but she got it out before I got a rope on her.

I have the same problem. Yearlings are slow to shed. Next year, they will be ok.

The loaders that don't leak down overnight are few and far between.

I use one on a bush hog and hay tedder. Works good on some implements, not so good on others. I don't like it on a small plow. It's definitely worth having.

I think i'ts great. Eventually they will get to the point that enough food can't be raised, and prices will rise. American agriculture is too productive is the reason farmers are broke.

I don't know about the nutritional value, but I can't get my cattle to eat it. I have some other grass they are slow to eat, but they avoid canary grass like the plague.

That's the way it is. Summer showers are sporadic, and it may rain on the grid, then you get nothing.

As many of them that are around, I think Agco will have anything you need.

I've never had trouble with 45-50 days. The cow has dried up, if they try to suck a little and don't get anything they forget about it.

I used to mix it with my feed, but I only used 25 lbs per ton. Cows eat it the same either with or without the lime.
