Sauchentree Farm, at New Aberdour, on the north-east coast of Scotland, is run by Bruce Irvine in partnership with his father and mother. Help at lambing comes from his art-lecturer wife, sister and brother-in-law and, their two daughters are starting to get involved in the farm.

In total, Bruce farms 650ac with cereals, sheep and cattle. Bruce believes the three enterprises are as important as each other, with livestock providing fertility for the arable side. Bruce markets their lamb and beef through Scotbeef and enjoys competing with neighbouring farms on yield and lambing percentage.

Bruce has been focussed on dynamic health planning so far, watch now to see what he hopes to achieve through the programme.
