[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1542543, member: 24947"] I agree on part of that. Yet oat pasture is plenty good feed. Someone around here once said " I fertilize my grass so I don't have to supplement".... ;-) It cost about three times as much to plant 40 acres of well fertilized oats as to buy enough wcs to supplement 40 cows for 100 days. BUT....the oats can be grazed mutiple time's if managed correctly. Plum into may. Or you can pull the cattle in March and cut hay in May. Cheaper is relevant. Labor......you've bumped your head..lol A couple of days on the tractor in pretty weather vs every day all winter long....come on man. And I'd like to know how your handling wcs without a tractor. Unless you're still feeling out of a bucket. Also good oat pasture will replace a good bit. Alot....of your hay, greatly increasing value. It's healthier for cattle to spread out and graze vs pushing around a trough. If plant a field by the house it makes for a nice view when they start filtering in the morning [url=https://postimg.cc/mhZ582kC][img]https://i.postimg.cc/mhZ582kC/KIMG3870.jpg[/img][/url] [/QUOTE]
