Germinal Farm Walk – Low input beef system

May 23, 2023 @ 2:30 pm - 5:00 pm

Top House Farm, Cockshutt, Ellesmere, Shropshire, SY12 9AH

Julian and Rob Bowers are hosting a farm walk with Germinal on Tuesday 23rd May.  The brothers have developed a low input beef finishing system, taking calves from dairy farms, rotationally grazing on Countryside Stewardship GS4 Legume and Herb Rich swards and bringing them up to finishing weights on home-grown forage and crimped grains.  There will be an opportunity to discuss the entire farming system, including min-til establishment methods, grazing GS4 swards to comply with regulations, low input cereals, soil health and livestock performance.
