Weatherproof Your Farm
Do you have issues in winter with wet lying ground and poaching, or burning off and grass growth dropping off mid summer? Do you want to shorten housing period costs and grow more grass in drought with less fertiliser? If you would like grass growth like last year, every year then this course is for you. A mix of theory, practical in field observation, and discussion, the day will help you find ways to use the weather to your advantage whatever the forecast says.
We will look at the weather patterns over the last few years, how that has impacted farms and what you can do going forward to make the most of rain when it falls and keep it in the soil for when it is needed.
