My tractor experience is mainly within livestock use such as bail cart, rolling, topping, feeder mixer wagon, straw chopper muck cart and scraping out! The biggest tractor I have driven is a 714 Fendt what had a chip in up to 180 horse power. loader experience work has really just been stacking bales and unloading pallet off lorries. I have also passed my trailer licence January 2017.
My first experience of working with sheep and lambing was helping my Grandad with his 50 sheep and also on my friends farm of 300 Pedigree Texel sheep. I worked in a dairy of 600 Jersey cows and 300 off spring for two years. I have worked on an outdoor pig unit for nearly two years. This includes general rearing of 500 pigs with a 3 batch system where we farrow 100 in each batch. After a year I was promoted to being in charge of 2 members of staff. Upon being made redundant I then took employment on a dairy farm where my main duties were looking after and rearing calves. I was also in charge of grass management. I have experience of handling my Grandad's Pedigree Hereford which I show at agricultural shows. Following on from this I have looked after 200 Pedigree Beef short horns together with 500 calves.

I started enjoying farm work by helping my Grandad on his farm of sheep and pedigree Hereford. I attended Sparsholt College whilst working part-time on a farm which after college became full-time experienced included general tractor and dairy. I then moved jobs to work on an outdoor pig unit duties included 3 week batch and farrowing, until I was made redundant. After that I was employed temporary on a dairy farm for a year and my main duties were looking after the calves and cows. Other duties included cleaning and bedding together with general jobs like fencing. After this I moved to Oxford where I was employed on a Pedigree beef farm looking after 200 cows and about 500 calves. I then moved back to Hampshire to work on a dairy farm where my duties include looking after calves and cows, including general tractor work and fencing. I Also help with milking if required.
