Farming background

2014-2018 worked with several contractors and on different farms whilst I was younger and completing college.

2018-2020 I worked at a dairy farm and ran 200 head of cattle. My responsibilities towards the start was more general farm work based such as milking, bedding, calf rearing etc. This allowed me to hain experience in the parlour and with tractors. This then went on to become more of an assistant herdsperson role where as I took on running the youngstock side of the farm.

2020-2021 I worked on a beef farm. My main responsibilities where feeding and weighing but I also would help on tractor work when we were busy. I had the cattle averaging 3kg a day gaining.

2021-2023 I was self employed and had several jobs on different beef farms. I also had my own flock of pedigree herdwicks and store lambs on the side.

2023-2024 I currently work on a dairy farm. I started off wanting to do GFW and milking but since my role has changed to being a tractor driver. As much as I enjoy this the role I was promised was more stock based and I want to look for a job where I can use my knowledge and skills to progress a herd and keep pushing them to the best of their ability.
