I have a feeding barn, and don't use it. The mess around it, ends up as bad as the mess you are trying to avoid. Then you gotta clean the thing out. I feed on my least fertile spots. Sometimes two years in a row. Now that my cows are calving, I will move the rings pretty often. It's so muddy here, a calf can get trampled pretty quick. I'll lay wast to 3 acres or more over a winters time. Soon as I can get a cross the ground, I will work it with a field cultivator, and a heavy drag. I spray it for weeds, and never sow it down. It'll be the best grass on my place in due time.
