    Wow. Amazing to see the tall cover crops. The cows must love to graze that.

    • @RussWilson
      @RussWilson  3 роки тому

      The cover crops are the best we ever had. The cows do love it. The cover crops are sweet. Some of what we plant they make sorghum syrup. Thanks for watching!!

    You were right. The closer the drone gets, they really start ringing their tails. That is funny.

      They are getting better with the drone. But it's still a big fly to them. 😂😂😂😂

    It looks like the Sudan did not regrow for second grazing. Is this correct?

    • @RussWilson
      @RussWilson  6 місяців тому

      You are correct! After it goes to seed it will not regrow.

      I plant winter rye based cover crop. After we graze that we will most likely put it back in to Sorghum Sudan based cover crop.

    Hey Russ good vid! Help me with the math and cost per head per day with $100 land cost $55 seeding and seed, times 8 acres = 1240$ divided by 400 grazing days is $3.10 per head per day!! Seems high iknw your building soil but. Did I miss something? Thanks keep making vids

    • @RussWilson
      @RussWilson  3 роки тому +7

      You missed a step in your math.
      land cost $100 + Seeding $55 X 8 Acres = $1240 for 8 acres
      400 grazing per acre X 8 acres = 3200 total grazing days
      $1240.00/ 3200 total grazing days = $0.39 per animal unit grazing day
      Trying to figure this stuff out can be very confusing sometimes. Thanks for the great question!!
