The arrival of spring always offers a sense of renewal and a promise of new beginnings as the fields turn green, making it the ideal time to set haylage quality goals for the year. Generally, when discussing haylage quality, the conversation is usually centred around forage quality for the lactating herd, as it makes up the largest percentage of feed being consumed.

As the year draws to a close, it is the ideal time to take a step back and look at each part of your operation and make a note of areas where progress has been made (and celebrate it!) and identify areas of opportunity.
