We are a mixed family farming business with 600 acres of owned/rented/contract farmed arable land, together with further grassland for our herd of Suckler Beef cows with calves through to finishing. The business also has various diversifications.
The farm grows cereal crops, oilseed rape and sugar beet while also participating in Mid Tier Stewardship schemes. Keen to move towards more regenerative farming practices we have a Mzuri Strip Till drill which is used within the rotation along side min till and plough based establishment methods depending on the conditions.
