    We recorded over 100mm of rain since last Friday, land would also be heavy in nature and conditions starting to get sticky. Hard to believe after such a long duration of good weather Hows other lads getting on in the heavy ground? Any poaching occurring?

    Some heavy ground here too but only some slight damage around water troughs so far

    ye lads at the dairy?? i myself think that milking cows can be managed more easily in wet conditions i.e easier to practice on/off grazing and the likes compared to running around after sucklers.

    Ground still like concrete but could be a different story in a few days if the rain keeps coming.
