Northern Hemisphere field “Mud Season”

A lot of talk this spring regarding the annual Northern Hemisphere field “Mud Season”. Most folks in pasture forum circles and elsewhere are already aware of the general concepts governing rotational grazing and its various variant names and protocols; the broad concept of intense but short duration herd exposure to grass for the purpose of allocating pasture grass to grazing animals.

One of the solutions historically advocated utilized by The Elysian Fields and Pasture Project, switches the design equation involving animal, grass and time around a small fraction to derive a production model whereby the animal stays relatively “in place” where it is and the “Product Crop” harvesting equipment moves to or very near the involved herd to obtain the crop. In dairy production models this means moving the dairy milking apparatus equipment to the pasture and so to follow the herd; the same with abattoir functions in meat production, etc. The entire pasture super system is so designed to support the effort to take production out of phase with the norm in an effort to further minimize costs and maximize net profit while maintaining as natural a field presence as can be designed into the system. These systems anticipate fowl seasonal weather events, marginal field conditions, logistics, etc. It purposely makes it a task to assume nothing, solve for what can be planned - not what has been, and in so doing removes the drama associated with more traditional - less competitive systems not entirely so designed.

 Yeomans Plows, ...as your soil gets richer - so do you!

I’ve likely milked more dairy cows than you…

…and also farmed with family members as many or more owned - combined grain, hay and at one time pastured acres as you. I’ve been involved in commercial farming my entire life and studied or taken notice to many worldly practices. As a service provider I've talked to and discussed techniques one on one over a kitchen table with noted experts. It is very likely I can share with you developed methods and ideas you and / or the established conventional dairy, ranch and farming community haven’t considered seriously yet or in some cases at all for a very long time. Profitable, socially responsible, non-compromising considerations available to all if you simply look for and acquire them.

Simply put, these are the proven systems and ideas we offer our clients; and we can offer them to you as well. I thank you for your consideration. Give us a call.

Sincerely,

Owner, Royal A. Purdy

Notice to 2015 “Pasture Project” Participants

Our Clear Choice © - Elysian ©, “Pasture Project” clients should all have gotten their Spring 2015 letters and emails. Those we missed or those wishing to participate are encouraged to notified us and have elected their implementation schedule by the end of April - start of May. This will assist us greatly. We are offering the same basic schedule as last year that was disrupted by my father’s sudden and untimely illness; Events basically resulted in setting us back one full year but we have already started re-signing participants this season.

Historically sometimes referred to as “Swedish” or “Norwegian Fence”, “All Weather Hay Tripods”, “Hay Barracks”, “Haycocks”, etc.. We refer to it simply as our heavy duty “Elysian Field Trellis Modular  Systems” technology. Inter-disbursed along any existing fence-line or stand-alone, these devices are being developed - designed to enable a single individual to harvest a field hay or pasture forage hay crop in situ and in less time and far more economically than previously thought possible. 

Again, if you are interested to participate, you are encouraged to inform us soon.

Thank you for your assistance. Be safe. Sincerely,

Royal A. Purdy

What can you farm with a Keyline Plow?:

The smallest of the basic plow frame types we currently offer (“SB” Single Tool Bar Type Models), will serve you and your neighboring farm community with a heavy duty capability “keyline” device that will intercept ambient rainfall water on sod and provide for the highest surface water management versatility going forward.

With a standard duty general purpose (GP-39 Double Tool Bar Type Models), you can establish control over reacted soils environments such as gardens, etc., while maintaining separation in time of the involved digging points and shanks while maintaining low tractor horse power requirements.

With the Larger Heavy Duty Farm and Implementation Service provider type plow frames (L-43 HD Double Tool Bar Type Models), you can perform all the above with practical confidence in the devices’ ability to perform under the harshest of terrain sub-soil conditions.

All these systems are designed around helping you to provide net profit to your farming circumstance regardless of size. We can also build custom solutions in lesser and greater plow frame and attachment combination types to suit your exacting needs. Please allow us to serve you today!

Re: Notice Reminder of Terms and 2015 Pricing

Folks,                                                                                                                                                                  02/13/2015

Thank you for your inquiries of and business with A. H. Tuttle and Company. As many or perhaps all of you are aware there is currently a general shutdown of Ocean Ports across the entire “Left Coast” of the United States stirred on by a massive ocean port Dock Workers labor dispute.

This letter then will serve as notice that we intend to honor all fully paid Purchase Orders - as written and in hand for the foreseeable future on a first come – first served basis.

Further: All newly written Purchase Orders from this day forward will be subject to the same but new 2015 pricing that went into effect in January of this year.

This port “slow down” currently in full effect has been building for months. We have every belief and trust that this (strike) will be short lived, however no West coast ocean traffic is currently freely moving into or out of ports and all loaded arriving ships are currently standing idle at anchor off the coast. (A person could almost walk deck to deck halfway to China!). What we don’t know however is how long and to what extent the ocean shipping logistical back log (effecting all world ocean traffic - including that coming from Australia) will be disrupted. Periodically each year some single U.S. ocean port may be expected to shut down for a short time for some reason or another, but I've not seen an entire coast of ports shut down at once – ever!

We are still currently fully stocked with plow parts - devices, and have recently rewarded those smart purchasers who took advantage of the 2014 - 2015 “New Year Sale” and the one week sale that ended February 13^th! As always, we will endeavor to minimize this situation and timely re-stocking as best we can and are permitted.

As we have said repeatedly, ..if you have yet to order plows for 2015, “Don’t wait!”, ..let us know of your intentions very soon - with proper consideration and timely fully paid purchase orders - as we don’t want any disappointments.

If you have any problems or questions, give me a call or an email notice. Good luck to Us All!

Thank you in advance. Be safe. Sincerely,

Royal A. Purdy

The Function of TRIZ on Pasture to Acheive Ideality

Within the discipline of The Elysian Fields and Pasture Project systems pasture utilization, we often times choose to apply TRIZ and ASIT techniques in an effort to change the farm super system dynamics significantly by removing as much of permanent conventional systems as we can in a given situation so that we can take full advantage of the “Closed World” of the pasture system; by doing so, we tend also to remove most all that was associated and problematic with that prior (conventional) type system (including fixed and variable costs) in an attempt to achieve (pasture based) ideality. Paradoxically, the more restricted and confined we are in our “Closed World” condition, the more creative will be our solutions.
