Burgham Farm: mob grazing for organic beef herd

Organic beef farmers Sam and Becky Newington run Burgham farm in Etchingham, East Sussex.

They have improved their mob grazing infrastructure with the help of a Farming in Protected Landscapes grant, installing lead out wire to join existing electric fences, creating a permanent hot line right around the farm. It also paid for the purchase and installation of mole ploughed water pipes.

They have received a second grant to improve some of their existing hedgerows, via a combination of hedge laying and dead hedge creation.

Together the grants have made mob grazing easier to manage across the whole farm, with water and fencing infrastructure now doing more of the hard work.
