    anybody cut silage yet? and what yield did you get?. on paper mine should be cut now looks good in places but looks a bit low in places so might chance it another week or two (even if quality goes down a bit), just to get a decent crop. I wonder if the drought had much impact in bales/acre

    Did some in late April, might mow the main crop this evening but a bit overcast here, tomorrow more likely, like a bit of sun for sugars

    a good few around us cut in late april. we'll be cutting now within the next week. a neighbours herd of limousine cattle (stone mad i tell ya) broke into 3 of our silage fields there the weekend, trampled and shat all over it. some dose
