Moving the fat, pregnant ewes!
Life on the Land is my way of letting you into the world I live and work in. If you want to know about something we do on the farm, leave a comment, and I'll do my very best to answer it. I hope you enjoy reading about my adventures. Please share it with your friends and family, the more people who understand farming, the more support the industry will have. (Everything I speak about here is first hand experience, if I haven't attempted the job before I will say so.)

I Love It When Things Just Work!
It's early June, we've had rain, the sun is shining and everything looks amazing down here in Mobrup! There's feed coming out our ears and the crops poking its way out of the ground. I know not all farmers have got it this way at the moment but as farmers we have to take advantage of what we've got and so far I'm loving 2013! There's nothing quite like moving pregnant ewes and watching them bolt down the lane way kicking their legs and playing head butts because they're in such good condition. Putting them on fresh pasture and knowing they are doing well feels like an achievement. It is a thoroughly satisfying feeling knowing everything is at it's highest potential, even though its Mother Nature doing the bulk of the work it's still heart warming!
