Dairy Farm Life - S1E6 - April rainfall brings relief

After the driest three months in memory the farm received around 90 millimetres of rain during April.

As a result grasses have bounced back, providing precious green feed for our herd!

The challenge now is to get the right balance in the cows' diet between grass (90% moisture) and dry feed (such as hay and grain containing fibre) to slow down the grass going through their digestive system.
