The farm is a commercial operation which extends to over 200 hectares, providing arable, pasture and conservation areas, while being home to a number of specialist livestock enterprises. Over £1 million has recently been invested in developing the farm, as it positions itself not only as a leading provider of agricultural training and education, but also as one of the most innovative dairy farms in the region. Students have daily access to the farms exemplar resources through timetabled teaching, together with practical farm duties which take place throughout the year.
