Topping
I've had a lend of Mick's compact tractor and its amazing. I think it could be an option for the future, the attachments that it can use is unreal. More on this later...
But I've being using the mower deck to cut and top the boundaries of the paddocks, cutting down the nettles and weeds. Hopefully this will allow the animals to graze right into the edge of the fence and stop the ditches encroaching out into the fields. When the edges are tidied up, there is no reason why we cant cut the meadow right into the wire fence next year.
