Callum, Matthew, Andrew and Robert discussing lambing progress.
Matthew Biffen has been busy establishing the spring barley and ensuring a successful calving for their 120 Simmental based cows.
“This year, we are trialling liquid fertiliser for the crops. We are paying £96/ha to apply liquid fertiliser which includes the fertiliser with application the equivalent of 150kg/acre of 34.5% nitram,” Matthew said.
“So this is saving us six bags of fertiliser which can be used on the grass.
“I have wanted to try liquid fertiliser to see how it performs before we decide if we want to invest in new equipment.
“We are going to need fertiliser for the grass with this colder growing season and we can put some onto the winter wheat if we feel it needs a top up.
