Have I Got Moos For You
In this episode of Have I Got Moos For You we’re talking INVESTMENT.
Farmers Guardian Head of Livestock Katie Jones talks to Patrick Morris-Eyton, who along with his family has recently invested heavily in a new 350-cow facility and 54-point rotary milking parlour at their farm Beckside, near Millom, Cumbria.
With a keen eye on the future, 27-year-old Patrick and his family have made this investment to future proof the long-term viability of the business.
The new cubicle sheds have cow health and welfare firmly in mind, and the new state of the art milking parlour is not only more comfortable for the operator, but has also led to calmer cows and higher milk yields.
We talk to Patrick about what drove him to make the changes and investment, what he's learnt, and the goals for the farm.
