Strategic Farm launch event - Cornwall

Join us at our launch event, hosted by Adrian Coombe, one of our five new Strategic Farmers. The 2019 Strategic Farms Programme will focus mainly on sheep enterprises, however there are also arable enterprises and a beef finishing herd at Dupath Farm.

The event will be a chance to find out about the current system in place at Dupath Farm including technical and business performance. We will also hear about what the family intends to change or improve, with the help of AHDB, throughout their two year involvement with the Strategic Farm Programme.

Agenda:

• Introduction to the Strategic Farm Programme – Leah Shanks, AHDB
• Overview of Dupath Farm – Adrian Coombe, host
• Plans for Dupath Farm throughout the programme – Leah Shanks and Adrian Coombe
• Farm walk
• Group discussion and suggestions for Dupath Farm going forwards
• 1pm – lunch and finish

There will be three events located at Dupath Farm in each year of the two year programme. To support this AHDB will be running a local discussion group for beef and sheep farmers. Discussion groups are a great way to exchange ideas and learn from likeminded farmers. This event will be an opportunity to find out more about how you can get involved.
