[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1723250, member: 968"] You got a LOT of different answers - but - bottom line is what is your soil/fields like? I am in upstate NY - we are making ruts with a 4-wheeler. We "should" be frozen, but we are not. No matter. Our falls & springs are way too wet. We have sacrifice areas that the cattle are wintered in - NOT our major pastures. We tore up all the land - between tractor tires & cattle feet - feeding in round feeders and periodically moving them when it got so wallowed out a cow could get stuck, let alone a calf. We also went to fence line feeding. I have gravel beds (wish I had concrete!!). All I can say is you have to figure out what YOUR land can handle. I think for a small producer, putting bales all over a field, and polywire feeding seems pretty handy. PS - we would KNOW where you live and be able to answer you better if you would go up to the top of the page and click where you name is - put your LOCATION. Thank you! [/QUOTE]
