I have completed two harvest in the uk , both in very modern farms equipped with the most up to date machinery. Duties included grain/straw carting with dolly trailers , verge mowing , cultivations, minimal combine operating, hay making , baling , mowing , tedding , 360 operating , dung spreading.

At the moment I am working for a silaging contractor in Ireland , duties include clamp work with a jcb 435 , operating class tractors, mowing with triple mowers , strautmann wagons and many more . The owner of the contracting ferm also owns a dealership so off days are worked in the workshop which has giving me great hands on experience with fixing machinery.

I have worked many other seasonal jobs including a lot of stock work on a daily basis , milking , calf rearing , beef management , sheep , suckler cows and many more.

Overall there isnt many aspects of farming I havent tried .

I grew up surrounded by livestock.

Our own home farm consists of sheep , horses and suckler cows .

The dairy industry was always my passion and this year I have completed my level six certificate in dairy herd management in mountbellew agriculture college.

I have worked on many large dairy farms (anything from 600-1500 cow herds ) . I would be most experienced with dairy master parlours although I have milked on some others . I have a good eye for stock and an extreme interest in animal husbandry and welfare .
