thank you for your kind and generous advises from all the board's members. i am a newbie and i am all ears for advises. I am humble to accept your generous inputs. I am glad that i was able to generate some excellent points. My plan in the next two years was to have 50 bred-cows and wanted to make sure that i have sufficient feed for winter from november to end of march. with 50 cows, i am looking around 4000 cut of two string bale hay (60-75lbs).
with two sections, i could easily generate 4000 cuts for my winter feeds. If i was short, i would easily get a second cut of 1/2 to 3/4 amount of the first cut on one section. I have irrigation pipes under each section and property is next to a large river(a year round). Still, i would be able to use the two sections(hay production with proper irrigation) for grazing.
Thank you for your sincere advise, Jeanne, i did not think about Johne's disease. I will ask my friend, the dairy man. if so, I would glad to use chicken manure.
I am very fortunate that we have a forum like this and humbly accept any inputs and advises. After practicing each day, i can't wait to see the cows in the pasture and seeing outdoor. thanks once again from the board's members. uscangus :clap:
