Something a bit different from our usual dairy related jobs today as we are combining our winter wheat, providing our cows with homegrown feed and bedding! 🐄🚜🌾 #MakeGrainWhilstTheSunShines #WinterWheat #ArableDuties

Last winter we trialed 6 cover crops to see which was the best suited for use on bare land, the winner was a 95% oil radish mix. The cover crop helps to preserve soil structure & nutrients which in turn reduces the risk of run off & eutrophication #SoilProtection #RadishNotRunOff

This week we have been planting our free trees from the NFU North West, Lloyds Business & @WoodlandTrust! The trees have been placed across the farm in both old and new hedgerows as well as within areas of open woodland where some of the older trees have died back 🌳 #PlantATree

Looking like a season where maize is better suited to heavier ground in these conditions, ours is looking very dry on sandier soils 🌱🌽
