Last week of May and the pasture is looking good
So here come the cows
Mowing the grass
After about a week of grazing and no rain the ground is showing.
They've cropped quite a bit
My neighbors pasture on the left compared to my pasture on the right:
Right now the difference is a bit frightening.
Unlike the 2 previous years we didn't get rain during the grazing period and, although rain was predicted it's been 10 days of sun and no rain after the grazing. This will be a big test for the pasture. How will this viewpoint look in the Fall? That's the question.
My hope is that enough of the old gray dead grass has been ground underfoot (or hoof) that when the rains do come (please let them come) the ground will be ready to soak it up instead of evaporating.
