Is anyone from MB or eastern SK going to the junior Shorthorn show in Olds this July? We are looking to get a couple of our heifers hauled there for a pair of enthusiastic young breeders from Nova Scotia!

Net Wrap.
Its use has become pretty standard in our industry. It saves us time over twine wrapping in the field. It sheds water. It reduces waste and loss while transporting.
We wrap hundreds and hundreds of bales per year.
Net wrap is advertised as biodegradable. It loses strength over time, as the degradation is a result of UV rays. Most hay is used up over a year, so it’s consumed before Mother Nature does her thing.
It was thought early on that beef cattle’s hard working and powerful rumen would easily allow the net wrap to pass on through.
Research has shown that to be incorrect, especially in the life span of cattle who live for years. Terminal animals, like a steer, have a life span of less than 24 months, mostly insulating them from the danger of a “clogged gut”.
Cows, who live 8-10-12 years are not as safe. A little bit, continually caught over time, can end up as a big ball of wrap, clogging the pipes. Believe me, I have seen it.
For this reason we make concerted efforts to cut off the wrap before the bales are fed, and properly destroy it. It isn’t good enough to pull it from the bales and leave it on the ground, as curious cows with long tongues are well knows for ingesting things they should not.
When we see it, we pick it up.
Even if it means grabbing it from ditches or road ways or any other place.
Please. If you use net wrap, remove it and properly recycle it. Beef cattle (and many others) thank you.
