[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1490361, member: 19683"] If you have very big pastures and a single calving time, then, I guess, there is no need to split a herd. We will split our herd into two this year. One herd will be with winter-spring calved cows, another will be with summer-fall calving cows and heifers. Have one bull, so at first he'll go to the first herd, mainly as a clean up bull after AI. Later, in fall, he'll come to the second herd, but again there are going to be some girls already AI'ed. We don't have very massive fields and it'll be more efficient if there will be more herds grazing. Won't need to move them very fast. [/QUOTE]
