This is what our cows are busy with this time of year seeing as we don't start calving until after the middle of April.
Feeding the heifers/leaner cows in rings moved every day, portable windbreaks in background.

We move the cows to cover 1 acre every 5 days with a group of 100 so we are putting down 500 AUDs worth of manure per acre.

Mature cow group finished a field ready to move to their next pasture.

Movin' out - as you can see we still have good snow cover. Twelve inches + on the flat with no breaks in the cover - another reason we don't calve in winter!

the heavy duty silage bunks we use - the mature cows get silage 1 day in 4 to supplement their ration as we are still feeding quite a bit of straw as well as their hay.

And finally - a neighbor's pasture improvement - drill waste spread recently from a new gas well being drilled just east of me.
