A major system overhaul on a lowland estate has lifted scanning rates and cut bought-in feed costs by £6.28 a ewe over the past five years.
The team at Overbury Estate, near Tewksbury, Gloucestershire, is aiming to rear 1.75 lambs a ewe this year from its 1,100-head cross-bred flock after scanning at 186%.  
This is a major improvement from the 2018 performance, when the flock scanned at 140%. Impressively, feed costs have fallen by 58% since 2016 to £4.40 a ewe.

Noted Charollais sheep breeder Mr Towers, who farms with his wife, Jackie, and daughter, Josie, at Greenlands Farm, Ingleton, also stood supreme Easter champion in 2018 and 2019, but was unable to defend the title last year when the annual showcase fell victim to Cobid-19.
But he bounced back with a bang as show classes returned this year when clinching the overall championship with the first prize Continental-x pair, home-bred 41kg Charollais-x lambs that went on to sell for £178 per head, or 434p/kg, to Rowland Agar Wholesale Butchers in Ilkley ....
