I'm finding I need to rotate the cattle and the pigs about every 5 days to a new acre paddock to avoid overgrazing. I'm glad I have that second 5 acres leased!
So, in summary, the main enterprise in 2015 will continue to be pigs. We will hopefully have four litters in February, and another four litters in July. If we can get our litter sizes up, using all the knowledge we've learned over the last few years, we'll be on course to have a decently profitable pig operation in 2015--perhaps $3-$5 thousand. We'll also have two steers that will bring in some cash, and we'll have a bit of garlic that will be too small to keep as seed. Throw in a bit of honey, and we should actually make money in 2015. Fingers crossed. There are no guarantees in farming.
