Cows trampling problem :(

Recommended Posts

Today a neighbouring farm let their cows in their field, they escaped through their stock fence, jumped our brook, churned up the woodland floor, trampled through our entire horticulture area of raised beds and they've eaten god knows what.

 

Not been a good day :thumbdown:

All that hard work we've done in the past year, demolished in a couple hours :thumbdown:

 

Anyone else had this problem?

Cheers, Steve

I live in mortal terror of my herd doing this one day. Most responsible livestock keepers will insure against such eventualities, it may look awful at the moment, but some help should be there to put thing right.

Here it's been deer (wild). Every time I got decent growth going on the fruit trees they got taken out. I thought it was muntjack so put 4' wire mesh tubes over them, only to find it was roe or fallow, cue re-think on bush form trees and a installing rings over the top of the tubes.
