Farm Update

It is all quiet on the farm as we prepare for Spring.

Thanks to the mild winter, we have made good headway on the drilling of cereals.

Looking to the future, we will be trialing compost tea on a hectare of wheat crop, as well as gearing up to start drilling Spring Barley next month.

On the dairy farm, calving is finished and we had around 250 calves this year, 50 of which will eventually become members of our dairy herd.

Milking is better than ever; we are hoping to hit the 2 million litre mark this year. The cows are in good shape due to diet change, good silage, a lot more crimp maize and the mild weather; all contributing to an increase in milk quantities.

Going to be interesting to see what the weather has in store for us this Spring and how it affects the farm.
