About Whitewool Farm

Jamie and Will Butler own a farming enterprise made up of Whitewool farm and Meon Springs (a fishery that also offers glamping, corporate days, clay shooting, self-storage, and events).

The farm has 1200 acres and is home to 400 Holstein-Friesian cows on an autumn block-calving system.

Through joining the Strategic Dairy Farm programme, Jamie and Will want to continue their journey to net zero and develop their farm further with the feedback from a steering group and local farmers that they will be hosting during their on-farm meetings.

This meeting will cover

  • The story of Whitewool Farm – How Jamie and Will developed their business to focus on productivity and sustainability
  • Genomic testing  How Whitewool Farm became one of the first to genomically test their herd and how the Herd Genetic Report tool can help you
  • What Whitewool Farm is currently achieving  
  • What Whitewool Farm would like to achieve during the three-year Strategic Dairy Farm programme
