I've been doing it wrong....But nobody is teaching this about farming!

What happens here

After refilling, close the top cover of the mineral feeder and secure any chains. Attach a tow rope (such as a hemp rope) or chain from the feeder to an ATV's hitch. Due to its slick, curved bottom, the feeder slides easily across the pasture. Drive the ATV slowly to move the feeder to the next designated grazing paddock. In regenerative grazing, cattle are typically moved to new sections of pasture twice daily, and the mineral feeder is moved with them.

Goal: Move the mineral feeder to the new grazing area for the cattle.
