Andrew Rees hosts a farm walk demonstrating the system which led him to being chosen as the 2022 Soil Farmer of the Year Runner-up.
About this event
Based in Haverfordwest, Andrew is dedicated to maximising the potential of his soil to benefit the health and productivity of his dairy business. Through implementing rotational grazing systems alongside diversifying leys with herb rich species and legumes, Andrew has reduced fertiliser rates, improved herd performance and the resilience of his land.
The farm walk will begin at 14:30 (and last around 2-3hrs), and will provide an opportunity to further hear and see how Andrew’s management strategy has benefitted his livestock and business, leading him to be awarded the Runner-up title in this year’s Soil Farmer of the Year competition.
The event will take place outside and refreshments will be provided.
The Soil Farmer of the Year competition is run in partnership with Innovation for Agriculture and kindly sponsored by Hutchinsons and Cotswold Seeds
