Head Stockman for Daylesford Farm, Phil Gordon-Jones talks us through the benefits of finishing his beef cattle on home grown forage and we join him as he weighs them to send off to abattoir.
As Head Stockman at an ecologically sustainable business like Daylesford, I am lucky enough to graze my cattle on some of the best organic clover leys I have come across, and the success of these pastures comes from the proper management of not only rotational cropping, but also of rotational grazing of both cattle and sheep. None more so than on our sainfoin crops at Daylesford.
