Much prefer the dribble bar as its not as messy and hardly any smell from the slurry when it is put out this way 👍🐄🐮

Some of the dung is there a year some since October. We usually put dung out in late September but unfortunately we didn't get it out. We only put dung out on grazing fields.

I'd say Keith put 2 loads of slurry and 2 bags of urea leave out the cut swarth but depends on soil samples

Good video, it’s a great chance to get slurry out, how did ye end up driving across a field to get to the one for spreading, is there no road gate for that one, do you ever see the day when you’ll be doing your own machinery work or would you rather lift the phone

I do but couldn't use it that day roadworks.. no to be honest it works out alot cheaper to get contractor to do it

I'll probably have to go out with half a bag sometime in the summer but hoping I won't I find that August is the month I struggle with grass just with the heat but depending on grass growth i hope I won't need any more
