Overview
We have contract vacancy for an enthusiastic Herdsperson to join a 500 acre all grass family farming operation near Cardigan.
This well managed 400 cow spring block calving herd of Frisians and crossbreds are milked via a Dairy-master 24 x 48 herringbone parlour with ACR’s, Auto ID, selection gate, and auto footbath.
Ability to trim feet a distinct advantage, with support from an outside contractor.
AI and breeding, is also undertaken by an outside contractor.
Intensive grazing is practiced as soon as weather permits, with electric fence moved daily and grass plate metering utilised. While housed, cows are in cubicles with easy feed silage.
Help is available at all times from the farmer.
A competitive package to go along with suitable accommodation on farm is on offer.
