In a movement to be more sustainable we have started to steer away from chemical fertilizer, and we have started using a product called Super Soil. I did a trial on my paddocks with this product. I had three paddocks side by side, two I sprayed with Super Soil and one I didn’t. The two that were sprayed got an extra one or two grazings more than the one that wasn’t sprayed, and they had better clover. I am very happy with it at the moment, and I am going to keep using it.
In 2022 I won Young Beef Farmer of the Year with Macra, which was a great achievement and gave me a bit of a pep in my step, it reassured me that I was doing something right, and I am very proud of it.
