@grazyfarmer Yes down €5 but up in national ranking which would suggest a majority of herds went down ??🤔

[Mella Briscoe @MellaBriscoe]

@Conorob2016 @eurogeneai @sprinkles785 2 heifers by him here conor....7/8 straws used went in calf to first serve so 5 more due

[Mella Briscoe @MellaBriscoe]

@grazyfarmer @AgriNetFarm Herdwatch & ICBF give different dates too..lots of chances for mistakes to be made @ scanning,recording etc so margins for error either side..end of the day dates are only a guide as so many variables involved

[Mella Briscoe @MellaBriscoe]

@bryanjdaniels Well done Gail

[Mella Briscoe @MellaBriscoe]

@sprinkles785 There be no" lookin down "if people realised the serious margins ye are making ..ye are the most clued in farmers I know & I think ye could be very busy this year trying to advise rest of us how to cut costs !!
