With a keen interest in genetics, Rob has focused on breeding desirable traits from the flock, such as yield and fibre length, to improve the quality of their wool.
In addition to traditional farming methods, Rob is also passionate about using their sheep as a regenerative tool for soil. By incorporating them into the arable rotation, the sheep help to naturally fertilize the land, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and promoting healthy, nutrient-rich soil. With a strong commitment to sustainability and a willingness to experiment with new techniques, Rob is at the forefront of a new wave of innovative, forward-thinking farmers.
