    Great weather for slurry Mark, I got all completely emptied this week. Covered all the grazed ground with the pipes and the trailing shoe. Hopefully it will grow grass when the growth comes 🙏 😌

    Getting tanks down during calving season is a huge pain point. Would love to have seen slower footage of your lay flat hosing setup pumping into the slurry store….it got me thinking…how do you connect the blue layflat hosing to the spiral “slurry”hose nozzle shooting into the slurry store?

      On one tower the hose has a fitting that is bolted on, the other has a normal connection

    Why dont you add some "bugs" to the slurry. Stops the crust forming on top, makes mixing easier and reduces smell.

    Will you use all that slurry? Is that just to slurry the fields for the cows or will you use it for other stuff?

    • @MCMilkingIt
      @MCMilkingIt  Рік тому

      Yep, all the slurry is used to fertiliser our paddocks for the cows and silage
