Signpost: Tim makes plans to tighten next year's calving season to 12 weeks

The cows are milking well at 27 litres with 4.14% fat and 3.59% protein. And the breeding season is also going well. At the moment, I have a submission rate of 88%, which I am very happy with.

We watch the cows very closely and our calving pattern is very good, which helps. The calving interval is 369 days and the six-week calving rate is 80%.
