What September means, for a British Farmer?

The end of Summer is upon us, harvesting crops becomes a priority on the Farm making it a very busy period. Ploughing will restart, drilling or sowing will take place on winter wheat and barley crops.

This year’s lambs are in the weaning phase from their moms’ milk, while preparations for auctions start to take place

September will see the start of Autumnal colours sweeping our countryside. The trees will start to change from greens to a range of golds, browns, and reds, making it a very beautiful time of year.

As preparations for Autumn are in full swing have you thought about investing in a new shed or storage for your farm? If the answer is yes, here at Buildings uk we provide custom designed Steel Framed buildings throughout the country.

September Is Organic Month- How Is Organic Farming Different

Artificial chemical fertilisers are prohibited – instead organic farmers develop a healthy, fertile soil by growing and rotating a mixture of crops, adding organic matter such as compost or manure Pesticides are severely restricted – instead organic farmers develop nutrient-rich soil to grow strong, healthy crops and encourage wildlife to help control pests and disease Animal welfare is at the heart of the system and free-range is guaranteed. The routine use of drugs, antibiotics, and wormers are banned. Instead, the farmer will use preventative methods, like moving animals to fresh pasture and keeping smaller herd and flock sizes Genetically modified (GM) crops and ingredients are banned.
