Richard Padfields wheat crop was cut last week, using his contractor Brian Morris Class forager fitted with grain crackers and treated with Volac Home N Dry to make Alkalage. Mr Padfield is making Alkalage for his Glos-based beef cattle for the second time. "Last year, cattle grew better than ever before, were far cleaner and required less clipping before slaughter." A harvest window of up to 30 days also makes Alkalage a contractors dream, adds Volac.
