grazing on meadows
Cows play an important role on the farm. They process low-value protein for high-quality milk, meat and manure. Cows feed primarily on grass. The basic feed for cattle is meadow sward. They receive also mixtures of grass with clovers, lucerne and herbs. As a rule, grazing of animals takes place during the summer. Only when it is too hot, they remain in the stables and are fed with fresh fodder from the fields. During the winter the cows receive hay made from grasses, clovers and lucerne, which after a slight drying in the meadows is dried in the hay halls with preheated air (solar energy or wood-fired stoves). Thanks to this, fragile and brittle leaf of legume plants and herbs are preserved. Hay is stored in bulk. The hay hall is large, its capacity allows for gathering hay collected from the area of 100 ha.
