Guys,
Couple of questions for you. First, if castrate at birth, what is the best way to catch a calf when it is born and deal with the mother while band him and tag?
And the other question, about pastures...here is my situation, my fields been cut for hay for years, just cut and haul away...so I only manage to get about 2 T/hectare of hay...sold some, and feeding the rest on the fields, but when I tilled the area for the garden, I saw some crazy grass growth at least 5-6 times the amount of grass, and that make me think about doing some "soil puncture" of all the areas I will be able to this spring and maybe adding some seeds as well. What are some of the best working solutions that will improve the grass without full blown tilling and planting etc?
