Catch up on this webinar to watch the launch of our latest strategic dairy farm, Myerscough College, home to an all-year-round herd of 200 Holstein cows yielding approximately 9,500 litres.
You will get an open, honest, and transparent overview of the farm from Director of Farm Operations, Ruari Martin, including its background, operations, and a virtual tour.
We will hear from Ruari, who is a current member of British Cattle Breeders Conference committee, a previous Tesco Future Farmer and MBA graduate from York University about his long term vision for the business as well as looking at the farm’s technical performance against AHDB’s KPIs.
This will cover a critical look at areas for improvement and future focus that include:
- Improving soil structure by correcting and reducing compaction and indices
- Improving infrastructure and management to reduce cell count
- Maximising the use of data for farm management
- Maximizing grass utilisation and crop rotations
