I used to finish all the stock to beef
Being a breeding farm with sucklers and ewes is working out for us at the moment – we don’t have the big outlay of buying animals for summer grazing. Photo Roger Jones..
Now that the winter has finally passed we can let the remainder of the housed cattle to grass. Over the last few weeks I have decided which cattle I will sell and which I will return to grass. The next question is, should I sell more of them?
I asked a neighbouring farmer a few days ago and he jokingly replied, “of course you should and don’t spend too much time thinking about it”.
