I have extensive experience with different types of farm machinery from hauling grain with a tractor and trailer, daily feeding using a feed truck or wagon attached to a tractor, cleaning cattle pens and using other equipment to fence, and cut and bale straw and hay. I also have experience driving farm equipment in all seasons and extreme snowfall.
I have worked on farms ranging from 30,000 head of cattle to smaller pedigree breeding units, including extensive pasture grazing systems to intensive feedlots. I utilise low stress handling methods whenever I am working with livestock to ensure both animals and people are kept safe, and have extensive experience with all types of animal husbandry from calving. lambing to identifying and treating sick animals.
