About Hereford Monitor Farm

  • Garnstone Farms became a Monitor Farm in May 2024
  • 1,400 ha (880 ha arable)

Challenge: The Hereford Monitor Farm is examining how machinery costs, crop protection choices and break crop integration affect farm profitability and resilience. 

Approach: Chris is focusing on machinery costings, pesticide-free approaches and the role of break crops in the rotation, creating a practical platform for reviewing costs, management choices and business performance. The Monitor Farm is positioned to generate useful evidence on cost control, rotational planning and profitable low-input decision-making. 

Impact: Outcome details will be shared upon completion of Monitor Farm activity.
