Combinable

Alongside, (and complimentary to) the production of root crops, we are growing a range of combinable crops – spring oats, spring barley and legumes (peas/beans). The oats are destined for milling (cereal bars) and the barley is destined for malting (lager production), with a good proportion going for export. The spring cropping of these is an essential part of our rotation. Our pea/bean crops satisfy another element of the rotation – nitrogen fixation. We drill using all of our own seed, with the surplus being sold on the open market.

Our new grain store has now been completed. This will provide us with an increased storage capacity of around 25%. This means that all our grain can be dried within 24-hours of harvest. This extra space will also provide us with spare capacity for drying and storage in difficult seasons.

2023 will see a significant increase in area from the current 350 hectares to 500 hectares, as more land is being put through the conversion process.
