Hi All

We are currently trying to decide whether or not to cut our two oat crops
for silage or leave it & use for cereal hay. We are located in the
Goulburn Valley and have been here for 12 months. We have a small herd of
Stud Beef Cattle and vealers.

Due to the dry conditions we have been evaluating our options and as we
only have 7% Water Allocation at the present we are deciding if cutting
for silage is a good option.. this is all new to us!! Any ideas??

Cheers
