Cattle Farming Attachments To Increase Your Productivity

Cattle Farming Attachments To Increase Your Productivity
When you’re cattle farming, you know how important it is to have the right equipment to tackle all of the tasks out in the field. Thankfully, John Deere offers a wide array of attachments for your cattle farming machinery. Everything from buckets to forks can be used with your equipment to turn it into a more versatile solution.
 
Rock Buckets
 
Rocks are no match for your machine while you’re cattle farming, as long as you have the rock bucket attachment on hand. This bucket is ideal for sifting and sorting through rugged material. It can clear stones and remove debris as necessary, all while you work directly from your cab. Digging is no longer a hassle with the rock bucket on your machine.
 
Bale Spears
 
Rounded bale spears give you maximum visibility as you use the attachment for all of your baling needs out in the field. With the bale hugger attachment, you can also lift, move, and stack round or rectangular bales up to 2,400 pounds.
 
Forks and Utility Grapples
 
With these attachments, you can make it so your tines easily penetrate pen-packed material. In turn, this makes for quick and easy cleanout, saving you time on the job and boosting your overall efficiency. The tine spacing and one-piece top clamp are designed to firmly grip hay and manure as well, making these attachments ideal for your cattle farming needs.
 
Side Discharge Buckets
 
The side discharge buckets are a must-have for cattle farming professionals who work regularly with sand, sawdust and straw. They can easily spread material in livestock stalls, increasing productivity on the job. In addition, the buckets can be used to backfill gravel into trenches and precisely place landscape mulch.
 
Rotary Tillers
 
Rotary tillers are essential for all cattle farming workers who are going to be handling rugged material. They have heavy-duty tines with a tilling depth up to six inches for even the most challenging terrain. In addition, they operate in two different directions for more efficiency.

Navigating Challenges On A Sheep Farm!

Video: Navigating Challenges On A Sheep Farm!

In today's episode of our daily sheep farming vlog at Ewetopia Farms, we find ourselves faced with a multitude of tasks and limited time to complete them all. However, we are determined to make progress! Our main focus today was to train the Dorset triplets to drink from bottles without the need for us to hold them. Arnie even took on the challenge of feeding bottles to the Suffolk lambs, giving him a taste of what it's like to be mobbed by hungry little ones!

This year, our lambs are growing at an impressive rate, which brings both joy and unexpected challenges. Some of the lambs have been getting stuck under the feeders, while others struggle to enter or exit the creep pen. To address the feeder issue, we diligently cleaned out the bedding pack surrounding the feeders, providing the lambs with more space. As for the lambs' difficulty in accessing the creep pen, we plan to separate the larger lambs and relocate them to another pen soon.

With a large number of sheep on the farm, ensuring everyone is fed each day leaves us with limited extra time to tackle additional tasks. Nevertheless, we believe in taking small steps towards our goals. Join us in this episode as we navigate through the challenges and work towards the well-being of our flock
