Grazing strategies for better returns: Sheffield

By kind permission of the Beary family

Join AHDB Beef & Lamb and independent consultant, Liz Genever, for this workshop to understand how we can improve animal performance and farm profitability through maximising grass utilisation. Following an AHDB event at Jim and Julia’s farm last year, we revisit this time to see what changes have been made and how they’ve impacted the business.
