In years 2004-2015 I have worked in Newbury, where I performed all types of dairy and arable jobs (milking, yard, calf rearing, TMR feeding, foot trimming, vaccine administration, dehorning, medicine administration, assisting vet visits, exploiting different types of farm and arable machinery, for example tractor, telehandler, TMR feeders etc). Left because of the closure of the IAH.
