Farming background

I have farmed in the UK for the past 10 years (1 year in New Zealand). I gained my experience from a young age, on my aunties small pedigree hers in the lake district. I have covered a variety of dairy systems through the years and progression in the industry. Whilst my main experience in the dairy side 9f the industry I would like to increase my knowledge in the beef,Sheep or arable sectors if the situation arose. My last 3 positions were: A unit manager of 300 autumn calving cows. A herd manager of 200 spring and 80 autumn calving cows and thirdly a herdsman on a 250 pedigree holstien herd.

2 years as a fertility specialist for a fertility company which gave me a better understanding about breeding cows.
