First position post Warwickshire College. Day to day work on a dairy/beef/sheep farm.
Here I was quickly established into a well managed team in the operation and care of mainly the
dairy and beef herd. My duties mainly included morning and afternoon parlour preparation and then
milking. Working around these jobs I was usually found bedding down with the straw chopper, helping
with the rearing of calves, or feeding with a tractor powered feeder wagon. Bedding down the cow
sheds (cubicles) and scraping/mucking out yards were also fundamental roles included on a daily

My farming career started after i finished an ND course in Agriculture at Moreton Morrell. Here I learn the basics skills of farming. From college I worked on a 300 Cow dairy farm in my local town of Rugby. My main duties were milking, feeding calfs and bedding down. I gained experience on forklifts and tractors here. I was bale carting in the summer. From here I moved to a purely arable farm in Cambridgeshire for a summer contract. I was on a Fendt 936 on a 21 tonne Chaser Wagon during harvest and also a John Deere 6210R on an 18 Tonne Stewart Grain Trailer. I have always been very machine minded so therefore I picked up everything I needed to quickly. On wet days where we could not combine I was using my workshop skills I learnt from college to repair and maintain machines. After harvest I was ploughing and subsoiling for pre drilling. This was all jobs I had done before but I was growing more and more confident. I did alot of rolling after drilling, on a Class tractor with 12m Vaderstad Roll Cambridge rolls. I soon learnt to be responsible for all the kit I was using and always kept it in immaculate condition. I also completed jobs such as loading lorries, slug pelleting, hedge cutting, topping, power harrowing. all with big equipment and on John deere and Fendt tractors. After drilling had been completed I moved to a Dairy and arable farm near Telford. Here my duties were bedding down on a John Deere 6920s with a straw chopper, helping out milking and other tractor duties. These included bale carting, muck carting, slurry spreading. All jobs I had done before at college but I my experience was growing and I was getting more and more confident. I would say I am very confident tractor operator and a very quick learner. I love working on big machines but I am also cautious of the responsibility that comes with them.
