[QUOTE="Jafruech, post: 1671018, member: 24025"] After the "bomb cyclone" of 2019 I had neighbors hauling out dead calves and cows for weeks as the snow melted. I didn't lose anything. Even without death loss there's always people complaining about the frostbite losses. Calving on pasture here in late April (or some people in higher rainfall/snowfall areas here calving in June) means the best nutrients at the time they need it the most, no worrying about cold, snow, etc. We typically get very little precipitation in April of any kind. There's something to be said in working with mother nature and not against her. Every environment is different. That's just what works for mine. [/QUOTE]
